Les Hautes Terres

Joséphine- Brut Nature

Crémant de Limoux AOP

France - Languedoc

Somewhere on the edge of the Languedoc, in the upper valley of the Aude. In the Roquetaillade cirque, a conch carved out of the great swell of the Pyrenean foothills, Mediterranean and Atlantic climates clash from one side to the other, from the garrigue to the undergrowth. Crisp, crystal-clear air, peaceful atmosphere, cascading vines. The promise, inevitably, of wines in a class of their own.
A native of the village, Gilles Azam bought his first vineyard in 2000, and then patiently laid down each milestone of a 13-hectare certified organic estate.
