history
The Orchis range includes twelve varietal wines. Each of them reveals their specificities on their terroir of origin: Limoux (Languedoc Roussillon). Summum wines by Anne de Joyeuse, in her “Protect Planet” approach, sees her environment enriched. Thus, today we count more than eighty species of orchids in our vines. The best known being the bee orchid.
Vineyard
With reasoned viticulture, our methods of cultivation are based on the observation of the natural plant cycles of vines and the development of biodiversity. The vineyards, planted on clay and limestone soils, have been selected within three identified zones of climate and terroir surrounding Limoux: Upper valley of the Aude, Atlantic and Mediterranean.
Winemaking
Grapes are pressed directly on their arrival at the cellar, then vinified traditionally and fined at cold temperatures. They are then fermented under controlled temperatures.
Tasting notes
Bright pale gold in colour with scents of white flowers on the nose, evolving on the palate towards notes of white fruit and a fresh, citrus finish. Best served between 10°C and 12 °C.
Food pairing
Fine and well balanced, it will accompany all sorts of fish dishes and will also be ideal as an aperitif.
