3.5/5 (2 reviews)

This Pécharmant is well-crafted and crisp, with peppery, minty flavors. The tannins are present but supple, and the lively structure makes this a highly digestible, gourmet cuvée. A simple pleasure for any special occasion!

Domaine L'Ancienne Cure - Bergerac L'Abbaye 2019

"Power and finesse

"The 2019 Abbaye, typical of Bergerac, stands out for its supple, deep tannins." (Le Guide RVF 2024). This Bergerac, with its charming nose, is silky, fine and precise on the palate, with good length.

Domaine L'Ancienne Cure - Monbazillac L'Abbaye 2020 (liquoreux - 50cl)

4/5 (1 review)

"It delighted our tasters, who immediately praised the delicacy of its aromatic palette (Hachette)".

"Aged 24 months in barrel, this 2020 is original in its blend: as much Muscadelle as Semillon (45%), completed by 10% Ondenc, a traditional South-West grape variety that fell into oblivion after the phylloxera crisis. Intense gold, it delighted our tasters, who immediately praised the delicacy of its aromatic palette, blending acacia, exotic fruit and candied citrus, tinged with vanilla from the barrel. Full-bodied, candied, roasted, honeyed and woody, the palate is a good extension of the nose, with a fresh, persistent finish". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2024)

Domaine L'Ancienne Cure - Bergerac Jour de Fruit 2021 (sec)

4/5 (2 reviews)

Marked by a perfectly ripe Sauvignon Blanc, Jour de Fruit reveals white fruit and citrus aromas with a hint of boxwood. The attack is straightforward, full-bodied and enhanced by refreshing acidity. A lovely dry white!

Domaine L'Ancienne Cure - Bergerac Jour de Fruit 2021

2.5/5 (2 reviews)

With its deep ruby color, Jour de Fruit lives up to its name, revealing a nose of cherry and strawberry. Round and intense on the palate, sustained by a melted tannic structure. The finish reveals the excellent ripeness of the grapes. A salivating cuvée, a guaranteed pleasure!

L'Ancienne Cure - Bergerac L'Abbaye 2018 (sec)

"The attack is supple, with spicy finesse and a commendable hint of bitterness. The citrus fruit and density of the wine are there, but optimal use of sulfur hinders tasting. The exotic fruit remains crisp, however". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2021 - RVF) Give it time to air out so the sulfur can evaporate and make way for its beautiful fruitiness.

Domaine L'Ancienne Cure - Monbazillac L'Abbaye 2015

4/5 (1 review)

"With two Favorites, Christian Roche soars above an appellation that has particularly impressed tasters this year, with a truly remarkable level of quality. And this cuvée, which has already reached the top step several times, is quite simply exceptional. The color is a magnificent old gold, with amber nuances. The uncommonly complex nose evokes candied lemon, dried fruit, gingerbread, pepper and almond against a background of iodized scents. The palate is rich and surprisingly voluminous, but it's the subtle balance between sugar, acidity and alcohol that impresses. A great liquoreux that seems to suspend time and whose ageing potential seems infinite". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019)

Domaine L'Ancienne Cure - Bergerac L'Extase 2014

"Born of Merlot (55%) and Cabernet Sauvignon, this 2014 seamlessly blends red fruit and vanilla nuances. On the palate, its richness, concentration, vigorous tannins and woodiness respect the fruit. Great potential". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2017)

L'Ancienne Cure - Monbazillac Jour de Fruit 2011

3.8/5 (13 reviews)

"Candied lemon, yellow peach in syrup, a hint of mellowness and the divine aroma of dried apricot, an overripeness here admitted and very pleasant. On the palate, there's lovely sugar and, above all, beautiful bitters in a finish worthy of the great dessert wines, but we'd prefer them to a tuna and mango tartar". (Les Meilleurs Vins de France - Gault Millau). A lovely mellow wine bursting with white peach, candied fruit, honey, cedar... Already a gourmet delight, enjoy it now!

L'Ancienne Cure - Pécharmant l'Abbaye 2011

3.8/5 (12 reviews)

"Great depth of mineral and smoky aromas in this red from blue clay. On the palate, concentrated substance and magnificent flavors. Skilful barrel ageing has refined the tannins. The finish is long and fragrant. It will develop over the next five years". (Le Guide des bonnes affaires du vin 2015 - Gerbelle & Maurange). Relatively confidential, this fine appellation delivers a round, solid wine that will provide the perfect counterpoint to a homemade duck confit!

L'Ancienne Cure - Pécharmant Collection 2009

Notes : RVF 16/20, Guide Hachette 2**(Remarkable wine)
"A crimson color with purple highlights, this 2009 reveals a highly complex nose blending red fruits with a very fine, spicy woodiness. Powerful on the palate, the tannins are imposing, yet round and silky... " (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2013)

L'Ancienne Cure - Côtes-de-Bergerac L'Extase 2010

4/5 (1 review)

Notes : RVF 15/20, Guide Hachette 1*(Very successful wine)
"The dry bergerac 2010 L'Extase gets one star for its fatness, finesse and citrus notes mingled with a still very present woodiness, which will have to melt." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2013). A deep, powerful red that seduces with its subtle menthol nuance...

L'Ancienne Cure - Côtes-de-Bergerac L'Extase Rouge 2005

Notes : RVF 16/20, Gault Millau 16/20, Silver Medal Concours Général Agricole 2007
"This cuvée is hyper-concentrated, with flavors of blackcurrant syrup and raspberry. The oak is still present, but the whole harmonizes, bringing great pleasure today, which will last for at least ten years. Beautiful finish, with panache and a flight of spices". (Le Guide des Vins 2011 - Gault Millau)

L'Ancienne Cure - Bergerac L'Extase Blanc 2008

Notes : RVF 16/20, Gault Millau 15,5/20
"Crisp with apple and pear, powerful with a little heat, fresh with aniseed, delicate with flowers, long with licorice and vanilla. It's fat and lively at the same time. Bravo" (Le Guide des Vins 2011 - Gault Millau)
