“Vendémiaire or Brumaire? In the 2008 vintage, there’s no question: it’s the result of the October harvest selections that takes the cake. Overripe Petit Manseng grapes have produced a sweet, straw-colored wine with lively green highlights. The nose is captivating, so rich and warm: pineapple, praline, toffee apple, warm butter... The palate offers an explosive cocktail of ripe exotic fruits carried by a noble acidity with citrus notes. The softness of perfectly controlled oak enhances the finish.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins)

Disappointed compared to the other reviews... Very (too) sweet, heavy on the palate.
