History: Bijou produces authentic, award-winning wines that express the unique terroirs of Southern France. With a commitment to sustainability and innovation, our wines celebrate the distinct character of undiscovered regions in Languedoc and Provence.

Regional information: The grapes are sourced from the best sites above Limoux between 400 and 450m above sea level, in La Haute Vallée de l'Aude appellation. This unique terroir is distinguished by a set of microclimates where, exposed to inland coolness and humidity, and a wider diurnal range, the grapes benefit from a longer growing season to ripen slowly.

Vinification: After cold pre-fermentative maceration, followed by alcoholic fermentation and daily punching down, the wine is then aged for 6 months in conical wooden vats and 365L French oak barrels from Nevers and Tronçais before blending.
