Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, high acidity, sweet
A late-harvest Jurançon built on Petit and Gros Manseng, whose thick skins and searing natural acidity concentrate honeyed, quince and candied-citrus richness. That acid backbone is exactly what lets this style age for decades without cloying.
Serving: Serve at 8–10 °C.
