Petit Manseng

soft

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

This 100% Petit Manseng wine has a beautiful golden yellow color and offers clean, pleasant aromas of exotic fruits and citrus, carried by notes of gingerbread. The attack on the palate is soft and fresh, with extremely crisp fruit.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 4 stars (Producers of very high quality, those who are the pride of French vineyards)

About the estate:

This is the largest private estate in Jurançon and the most widely distributed brand in fine dining establishments and luxury wine shops. Henri Ramonteu has perfected the small-scale production of sweet wines with spectacular bouquets and fascinating length on the palate. All share the house style: great purity of fruit and concentration balanced by the liveliness characteristic of the region. Top notch.
