"A delicate nectar of sweetness..."
"The warm southerly air and wind help the grapes on the mountain vines to passivate, extending the harvest period sometimes into December to produce Magendia, a pure Petit Manseng with a nose of calisson and almond paste, and a tight mouthfeel reminiscent of roasted fruit, pink grapefruit and citrus, with extraordinary finesse and a finish that touches iodine".

Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Wine rated (guide 2024) 93/100
Domaine rated (guide 2024) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the wine:
The warm southerly air and wind make it easier for the grapes on the mountain vines to set, extending the harvest period, sometimes into December, to produce Magendia, a pure Petit Manseng with a nose of calisson and almond paste, and a tight mouthfeel reminiscent of roasted fruit, pink grapefruit and citrus, with extraordinary finesse and a finish that touches iodine.
About the domain :
Jean-Bernard Larrieu consistently produces Jurançons, both dry and sweet, of the highest quality. The dry wines are offered with a commendable touch of evolution, and are a faithful expression of the terroirs of this region. The mellow wines, always of fine stature, bear witness to a real mastery of balance. A benchmark domaine offering classic, deep and powerful wines that deserve to be aerated to take advantage of their great scope.

About the wine:
A mature, honeyed, ripe wine. Acidity keeps it fresh, while orange peel and sweetness give the wine balance. Beautifully ready to drink.
