Maison Antech is a family-owned estate in Limoux, France, with a legacy spanning six generations and a history entwined with the region's pioneering sparkling wine production since the 16th century. The winery, currently spearheaded by Françoise Antech-Gazeau and her son Baptiste, emphasizes sustainable viticulture and minimal intervention in winemaking to allow the unique terroir of Limoux and its indigenous Mauzac grape to express themselves authentically. Antech is renowned for its premium AOC sparkling wines, including Crémant and Blanquette de Limoux, characterized by freshness, complexity, and delicate bubbles, achieved through high-altitude vineyards and long aging on lees.
