Article Abstract:

Limoux, lying south of Carcassonne in high, rolling country within sight of the Pyrenees, is a district where white wines excel, as it is situated at the juncture of the warm, dry Mediterranean climate and the cooler, moister Atlantic climate. Limoux was recently awarded AOC status beginning with the coming vintage, 2003 for making high quality red wines.
