Demoiselle is smooth, sweet, and without excess! This quintessential glug-glug wine is nonetheless subtle and delicate. Its intense nose combines notes of fresh exotic fruits (pineapple, mango) and dried fruits (apricot). The palate opens with freshness, then a round and slightly sweet body envelops the palate, giving way to aromas that linger on the finish. A true source of pleasure!

About the estate:

In 1820, Jean-Noël Laudet, returning from the West Indies where he had spent more than twenty years in the spice trade, founded this estate in Bas-Armagnac to produce Gascon brandy. The vineyard (40 hectares on sandy soil rich in iron oxide) has been run since 2007 by Cyril Laudet (eighth generation) and his wife Julie, who also offer IGP wines.
