Vintage 2018 gave us enough grapes to make only two of our five Appellation Limoux white wines: Dédicace and Odyssée 2018. Knowing that our wines always like a year in the bottle, we decided to send one to her and keep one back a year, randomly deciding which one to submit and which one to keep back. Judging from her tasting notes on Dédicace 2018, it seems the right wine reached her glass.
“Pure high-extract chenin, more Loire than Cape” she said, with a “real richness and tension”.
“A really exciting, impressive wine”
The other new releases she tasted were our Crémant de Limoux, Vintage Rose 2016, described as “very pretty and rewarding”, and our super-crisp, clean, refreshing, zippy Blanquette de Limoux 2017
