"A white seducer!"
"Aged eight months in vats, this sweet Jurançon seduces with its intense aromas of candied fruit with hints of truffle, followed by a full-bodied, concentrated, rich and liquorish palate with a pleasant finish." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2020). A seductive white par excellence!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 15/20 (Very good wine)
About the wine:
The nose expresses seductive notes of mandarin peel and cooked white fruit. The palate is lively, powerful and vigorous, the sugar restrained, the finish full of energy. Beautiful style.
