This fresh, fruity white presents subtle notes of citrus, exotic fruit and acacia. The attack is fresh and ample, with a beautiful harmony of flavors. The estate's hallmark is to be found in the complexity and accessibility of each cuvée.

About the domain :

Founded around 1850, this family-run estate has seen 6 successive generations. Following in the footsteps of his father Louis, Didier Barré, who settled here in 1983, contributed to the revival of Madiran, of which he was one of the standard-bearers. In 2017, sisters Claire and Marion Bortolussi (daughters of Alain Bortolussi of Ch. Viella) took over the destiny of this flagship 25-hectare estate, forging a partnership with wine merchant Lionel Osmin to manage the operation and market the cuvées.

Deep golden yellow with pinkish highlights. Nose of acacia flowers and quince. Nervous attack, generous palate with great freshness. Taut, long finish. A fine Pacherenc!

too young for my taste. the acidity has not yet melted into the whole. on the other hand, you can already feel the potential. to be enjoyed again within a year.
