The Crémant de Limoux "Les Pipistrelles" from Domaine Gibert is an elegant and refined French sparkling wine, born in one of the world's oldest regions for producing sparkling wines. The Limoux appellation, located at the foot of the Pyrenees in the Languedoc region, is in fact considered the birthplace of the first bubbles in history, thanks to the tradition that began in the 16th century with the celebrated bottle-fermentation method.

This cuvée embodies the philosophy of Domaine Gibert, a family-run winery deeply connected to its terroir, capable of highlighting the unique characteristics of Limoux's vineyards through authentic, fresh and highly elegant wines. Produced according to the Traditional Method, with a second fermentation in the bottle and aging on the lees, the Crémant develops refined aromatic complexity and extraordinary finesse.

In the glass, it displays a brilliant golden straw yellow color, crossed by a fine, elegant and persistent perlage. On the nose, it offers a delicate and harmonious bouquet with aromas of white flowers, apple, pear and citrus, accompanied by pleasant notes of brioche, toasted bread and dried fruit, characteristic of aging on the lees.

On the palate, it is fresh, creamy and well balanced, with pleasant minerality that lends drive and depth. The bubbles are fine and enveloping, while the long and refined finish leaves a sensation of great purity and elegance.

A versatile and characterful Crémant, ideal as an aperitif and perfect paired with oysters, shellfish, sushi, fish tartare, gourmet appetizers, white meats and delicate desserts.

Winemaking

The grapes, carefully hand-harvested, are pressed and vinified separately by grape variety. Once alcoholic and malolactic fermentation is complete, the base wines mature in stainless steel for several months before being blended to create the final cuvée. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle according to the Champenoise Method, with at least 18 months of aging on the lees before disgorgement.
