"A delicate, sweet nectar..."

“The air and the warm southern wind facilitate the drying of the grapes on the mountain vines, extending the harvest period sometimes as late as December to produce Magendia, a pure Petit Manseng with a nose of calisson and almond paste and a tight palate featuring fruit notes reminiscent of roasted fruits, pink grapefruit, citrus fruits, with extraordinary finesse and a finish that hints at iodine.” (The RVF Guide 2024)

Wine rated (2024 guide) 93/100

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the wine:

The air and the warm southerly wind facilitate the drying of the grapes on the mountain vineyards, extending the harvest period—sometimes into December—to produce Magendia, a pure Petit Manseng with a nose of calisson and almond paste and a tight palate featuring fruit notes reminiscent of roasted fruits, pink grapefruit, citrus fruits, with extraordinary finesse and a finish that hints at iodine.

About the estate:

Jean-Bernard Larrieu consistently produces Jurançon wines—both dry and sweet—of great character. The dry wines show a commendable depth of complexity and are a faithful expression of the region’s terroirs. The sweet wines, always of fine stature, demonstrate a true mastery of balance. A benchmark estate offering classic, deep, and powerful wines that deserve to be decanted to fully appreciate their impressive depth.

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Wine Enthusiast)

About the wine:

A mature, honeyed, and ripe wine. Its acidity keeps it fresh, while notes of orange peel and sweetness bring balance to the wine. It is beautifully ready to drink.
