The Blanquette de Limoux is the oldest sparkling wine in the world. In 1554 the Benedictine Monks of the Abbey of SAINT-HILAIRE were producing the Blanquette which certainly makes it France’s oldest sparkling wine, preceding Champagne by more than a century. Around 1794 Blanquette de Limoux was discovered by a well-known American, Thomas Jefferson. The third American President was an expert on French wines, and the Blanquette was one of his favorites. Today Blanquette de Limoux has won the acclaim of wine enthusiasts throughout the world. It sells in the United States under the name SAINT HILAIRE to honor the monk who first created the wine over four hundred years ago. Don’t miss out on this great value!
