History
The Le Bijou de Sophie Valrose range is a dedication to the hardworking women of wine, past, present and future. Sophie Valrose is a symbol of the women of Languedoc who worked in the vineyards more than 100 years ago. These women rose and fought for their rights, improving working conditions for all.
Regional Information
The vineyards surround the town of Limoux, which is considered the meeting point between the the oceanic influence from the west and and the Mediterranean from the east. In addition, the vines benefit from the Pyrenean climate, where some of the vines are located almost 500m above sea level. The cool climate and wider diurnal range results in a longer growing season, allowing the grapes to fully ripen.
