"A luminous mellow, rich in flavor and emotion!"

"Bright, brilliant straw color. Floral notes with hints of fresh quince, pear, honey and lemongrass. The palate has an elegant texture and nicely combines sweetness with lively acidity, pleasing with juicy young fruit and a long, crisp finish." (Andreas Larsson)

Bettane & Desseauve

Domaine rated (guide 2026) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)

About the domain :

The Laplace brothers courageously manage this large 65-hectare estate, as well as a small adjoining négoce. They have adapted the style of local wines to contemporary needs, seeking greater balance and precision in winemaking. They are never short of imagination, creating wines of character at very reasonable prices.

Guide Hachette des vins

Domaine noté Award-winning wines (Wines from this producer regularly win awards in the guide)

About the domain :

Château d'Aydie is a family affair (and a sure bet): four Laplace children are now following in the footsteps of their grandfather Frédéric, who was one of the first to sell bottled Madiran, with the help of André Daguin, the famous Gascon chef. The 62-hectare farm has now been joined by a trading structure.

Note and review by M. PHILIPPE K. Published on 21/11/2022

In no way do I find the dithyrambic tasting note that made me buy this wine. Perhaps a "bad" bottle.
