Demoiselle is smooth, mellow, and unpretentious! This quintessential easy-drinking wine is nonetheless subtle and delicate. Its intense nose blends notes of fresh exotic fruits (pineapple, mango) and dried fruits (apricot). The palate opens with freshness, then a round, slightly sweet body envelops the palate, giving way to aromas that linger on the finish. A true source of pleasure!

Rated estate (2020 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

In 1820, Jean-Noël Laudet, upon 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 a terroir of reddish-brown sand rich in iron oxide) has been managed since 2007 by Cyril Laudet (eighth generation) and his wife Julie, who also produce IGP wines.
