Domaine J. Laurens, Graimenous, 11300 La Digne-d'Aval, Francia
Imagine sipping a glass of refined and unusual sparkling wine. Under the warm and restorative sun of southern France. Welcome to the heart of Languedoc-Roussillon, a region that enchants with its breathtaking landscapes, medieval cities rich in history and a thousand-year-old winemaking tradition. Right here, among rolling hills and sun-kissed vineyards, Domaine J. Laurens produces Blanquette de Limoux Le Moulin Brut. Languedoc-Roussillon is a land of contrasts, where the Mediterranean climate merges with the influence of the Atlantic Ocean and the Pyrenees. A varied terroir, characterised by limestone, clay and gravel soils, which gives the wines a unique complexity. Blanquette de Limoux is a protected designation of origin (PDO) located right in the heart of Languedoc-Roussillon. It involves the use of specific grape varieties, mainly Mauzac, Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc. The Moulin Brut, offered here by Domaine J. Laurens, is made from a blend of Mauzac (90%) and Chardonnay (10%) and is produced using the traditional method. The refermentation in the bottle, followed by a long period of ageing on the lees, allows us to obtain a sparkling wine of great finesse and persistence. It has a brilliant straw yellow colour and a fine, persistent perlage. The nose perceives aromas of green apple, acacia flowers and apricots, which blend into an elegant and refined bouquet. In the mouth it is fresh and lively, with a pleasant acidity and a long and persistent finish. An extremely versatile wine, it goes well with a variety of dishes. Ideal as an aperitif, it can also accompany dishes based on fish, shellfish, white meats and fresh cheeses.
In the charming Limoux region, in the heart of Languedoc-Roussillon, lies Domaine J. Laurens, a winery that perfectly embodies the balance between tradition and innovation. Located in La Digne d'Aval, this little oenological pearl extends over 13 hectares of vineyards, where native grapes such as Mauzac and international varieties such as Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Pinot Noir are grown. With an annual production of about 130,000 bottles, Domaine J. Laurens has carved out a prominent place for itself in the regional wine scene, thanks to wines that combine excellent quality and accessibility. The history of this company is as fascinating as it is unusual. Behind the labels is Jacques Calvel, a former computer engineer from the region who decided to reinvent himself as a winemaker upon retirement. With passion and dedication, Calvel inherited a well-established company, previously shaped by Michel Dervin, an expert ‘champagnard’ who brought with him the know-how of the Champagne region. Thanks to this solid foundation, Calvel was able to concentrate on what really matters: producing top quality sparkling wine, respecting the centuries-old tradition of Limoux, an area known as the cradle of French sparkling wine, even preceding Champagne itself. J. Laurens wines are appreciated for their good quality-price ratio and for their pleasantness. Elegant, well-balanced and easy-to-drink bubbles that win over both experts and novices.
