Les 4 Terroir Limoux Story |
Domaine de Baron'Arques and Sieur d’Arques What is the link ? Created in 1946, Sieur d’Arques is one of the most renowned premium wine companies of the South of France located in LIMOUX. Since the 80’s and because of the specificities of their Terroir, they pioneered producing premium barrel aged Chardonnays with a Burgundy philosophy. These are wines meant to be kept which rival with the finest appellations in France. This terroir selection approach reveals the richness and the diversity of Limoux Appellation through its Chardonnays. In fact when Domaine de Baron Arques bought their property they entered a partnership with Vignerons du Sieur d'Arques. So when the Baron Philippe de Rothschild produced the wine for the first time in 1998, 1999 and 2000 it was in fact called "Baron 'Arques" after the name of the two partners. However when they completed renovation of the property they bought (Domaine de Lambert ). Baroness Philippine de Rothschild decided as consumers were now familiar with the brand name Baron 'Arques, instead of switching to Domaine Lambert, in which Vignerons du Sieur d'Arques also have a minority share they decided to call it Domaine de Baron 'Arques. The wines are available online. |

![]() The farm and its history
![]() Of a wine called Lugana, already renowned and appreciated by the ancient Romans, we have a first written evidence already in the XVI century. In 1596, Andrea Bacci, doctor of the Pope Sixtus V and lover of oenologic matters, wrote, on the first edition of his "De Naturali Vinorum", that: "Between Peschiera and Desenzano exquisite Trebulani wines (read Trebbiani - editor's note) are produced and a golden, sparkling variety of Candia wine which can be reserved for up to three years." The farm Cà dei Frati is situated in the hearth of the production area of Lugana, on the southern shore of the Lake Garda, not far away from the peninsula of Sirmione: over 40 hectares planted with vine on clayey soil, divided in several allotments, all located in particularly productive zones. The name chosen by the farm is not casual, but wants to recall the past historical events of the Sirmionese viticulture, the period when the shod Carmelites of the Friary of Santa Maria del Carmine decided to plant some vineyards to produce the wine necessary to their needs and to the celebration of the Holy Mass. In an estate census, carried out in June 1782 after the friary had been closed,we find a note of: ”a house situated in Lugana in the estate of Sermion Veronese in the district place of Chiavighina called the place of the Friars, composed of several constructions, such as wine cellar, kitchen, stable, fireside and shed with two rooms upstairs, loft, barn, well and threshing-floor, contiguous to other rural buildings, wine cellar upriver…” To read more, click here.
