Robert Parker
"A cuvée of exceptional aromatic richness and purity".
The nose of this dry Jurançon is musky and spicy, followed by aromas of raisins, medlar and quince, finishing after aeration with notes of apple and pineapple. Rich and broad, the palate is savory and powerful, with an explosion of flavors on the citrus-dominated finish.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 92/100 (Vintage 2020)
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.
