Rating: Bettane & Desseauve 16/20, RVF 16/20, Guide Hachette 1* (a very successful wine)
Noblesse du Temps is a masterpiece masterfully crafted from the small, sun-dried Manseng grapes, harvested in early December. A wine that seduces with its sweetness, full of finesse and delicacy. Noblesse, without a doubt!

Un grand vin qui s'appréciera sur des mets délicats : foie gras frais poêlé, truffe à la croque de sel ou pourquoi ne pas le déguster à l’apéritif, tout simplement pour le plaisir du vin lui-même ?...<br/>
