Quintessence plays the long game with this cuvée Folie de Janvier. Harvested after the January frost, the Petit Manseng expresses true concentration, both rich and spiritual. The fruit is candied and honeyed. A wine that combines freshness and sunshine! - Delivery in wooden cases for orders delivered in France of 1 bottle of this wine.

Domaine rated (guide 2021) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)

About the domain :

This is the most important private estate in Jurançon, and the most widely distributed brand in fine restaurants and luxury wine shops. Henri Ramonteu has perfected the small-scale production of sweet wines, with their spectacular bouquet and fascinating length on the palate. All share the house style: pure fruitiness and concentration balanced by the vivacity typical of the region. All the best.
