Within the vast Languedoc vineyard, Altugnac is now 110 hectares in the Limoux appellation area in the Haute-Vallée de l’Aude. This specific region is located in the extreme southwest of the Languedoc vineyard, at the foot of the Pyrenees, in an area where Mediterranean and Atlantic climatic influences combine. The vines are 30-50 years old and are farmed organically. “Turitelles” refers to the marine fossils found in the clay-limestone soils–exceptional conditions for Chardonnay.
Light-medium body, creamy and layered with orchard fruits–pear, green apple and an underlying creamy texture.
