Baburu Brut Crémant de Limoux NV

Lemon
Hazelnut
Pastry

Lemon, hazelnut and a little pastry flavour in fine bubbles. It feels gently creamy, then the fresh edge leaves your mouth ready for another sip. A dry sparkler for gathering round before the evening gets going.

You’ll notice the nutty, creamy feel underneath the fresh lemon flavour.

AT THE TABLE

Parmesan gougères

The savoury pastry echoes the pastry scent and the bubbles keep the cheese light.

SOMETHING SIMPLE

Chicken schnitzel with lemon

Lemon meets the citrus while the fine bubbles freshen the crisp coating.

FOR SHARING

Scallops with hazelnut butter

The nuts echo the hazelnut scent and the acidity lifts the butter.

Also good

Parmesan gougères pick up the pastry and hazelnut side of the wine.

Skip

A sweet lemon tart can make the lively acidity feel sharper than intended.

The producer

Aubert & Mathieu: Old school friends, fresh ideas for southern wine

Anthony Aubert and Jean-Charles Mathieu first met at school, then reunited over a glass and an idea. Their wine house works with selected growers across Languedoc-Roussillon, building each cuvée together rather than farming an estate of its own. Picking at dawn, native yeasts and carefully chosen ageing vessels serve their interest in freshness and balance. The mood is open and playful, with serious attention to how the bottles are made.

Grapes / sourcing: Selected partner growers across Languedoc-Roussillon.
Winemaking: Spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts and limited additions.
Ageing: Barrel, concrete, steel or demi-muid, chosen by cuvée.
People: Anthony Aubert and Jean-Charles Mathieu.
Responsibility: B Corp certified since January 2024.
They talk about: Freshness, fruit, balance and less formal wine culture.
