“A delicate, sweet nectar…”
“The air and the warm southern breeze 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 marzipan and a tight palate featuring fruit notes reminiscent of roasted fruits, pink grapefruit, citrus, with extraordinary finesse and a finish that hints at iodine.” (Le Guide RVF 2024)

About the wine:
The air and the warm southern breeze 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 marzipan and a tight palate featuring fruit notes reminiscent of roasted fruits, pink grapefruit, citrus, with extraordinary finesse and a finish that hints at iodine.
About the estate:
Jean-Bernard Larrieu consistently produces dry and sweet Jurançon wines of exceptional quality. The dry wines show a commendable depth of character 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 scope.

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.
