"A must-have from the estate: crisp, fruity and versatile from aperitif to dessert!"

This 100% Petit Manseng has a lovely golden yellow color, with a clean, pleasant nose of exotic fruit and citrus, carried by hints of gingerbread. The attack on the palate is soft and fresh, with extremely crisp fruit.

Domaine rated (guide 2026) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)

About the domain :

This is the most important private estate in Jurançon, and the most widely distributed brand in fine restaurants and luxury wine shops. Henri Ramonteu has perfected the small-scale production of sweet wines, with their spectacular bouquet and fascinating length on the palate. All share the house style: pure fruitiness and concentration balanced by the vivacity typical of the region. All the best.
