About the wine
Dazzling, delicate French sparkling
- Françoise’s beloved Crémant de Limoux is a dazzling Angel-funded treasure, dancing with delicate bubbles, a creamy, classic smoothness and unmatched elegance.
- Angel support gave Françoise her choice of the finest fruit from Limoux's hillside vineyards, France’s original sparkling region. She's carrying on this centuries-old tradition, making some of the finest bubblies Limoux’s ever seen.
- For funding Françoise as she perfects each sparkling wine, Angels get direct access for an unbelievable deal.
