This vintage Blanquette available for $9.99 a bottle (consider it free for the wine of this quality) gives much more expensive Champagne wines a run for their money. Made using Champagne methodology, it has all the attributes of a good Champagne. The flavor profile is unmistakable Blanquette: apples, apples and yet again apples.
In Champagne region Blanc de Blancs presumes 100% Chardonnay wine. I am not sure it works the same way in Limoux. If I am to guess, this is a Chardonnay /Mauzac/ Chenin Blanc blend. L'Exception name presumes that Chardonnay was barrel fermented.
