He's on a mission to make Limoux famous
Limoux is the oldest French sparkling wine region in the world — but you’ve probably never heard of it. Baptiste is here to change that.
He’s on this mission with his mother Françoise — who also proudly shares her bubbles with Angels. Together, they’re elevating the incredible wines of their home that they know and love — because they know you will love them, too.
Baptiste is a 7th generation winemaker following his family’s sparkling path — but at his young age, there’s no telling how far this next generation of Limoux will go.

If you’re looking for delicate sparkling wines with a fresh bit of French elegance and finesse, Françoise is your match. “I like to keep a beautiful acidity in all my wines," she says. "I'm also convinced that it's important to give wines time. That’s what makes bubbles so luscious and complex."
A 6th generation winemaker from Limoux – an ancient provence in the southern Languedoc famous for sparkling wines like Crémant de Limoux – Françoise is proud to carry her family's winemaking traditions – but she has a bigger vision in mind...
"I dream about Limoux becoming the best sparkling wine appellation in the world," she says excitedly. "And Angels will make that happen!"

Pierre’s been dabbling in all things winemaking since the age of 10 when he would keep an eye on the vineyard and cellar with his father. That’s what you get for being born into Champagne! His dream has always been to continue his family’s wine legacy.
Champagne’s under-the-radar grape, Pinot Meunier, is Pierre’s true passion. Pierre says Meunier packs a bit of extra punch. It requires a little more TLC, but he has what it takes to make extraordinary Champagne from this lesser-known grape. And with your funding, he’s ready to bring this variety to life.
