Rating: 2**(Remarkable Wine) Guide Hachette 2012
"This Savin cuvée, a Petit Manseng aged in barrels, is our favorite. Intensely golden in color, it offers a powerful nose combining ripe fruit, candied citrus, honey, and spices with rich oak notes and hints of cedar. On the palate, it combines richness and concentration, depth and complexity. Above all, it shows remarkable balance thanks to its long, tangy finish, which indicates interesting potential." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2012)
