Hachette
“An authentic cuvée built around Gros Manseng, with a touch of Baroque to firmly anchor it within the appellation. It offers a complex and elegant nose, opening with notes of yellow flowers followed by apricot. Rich and full-bodied, it is round and fresh on the palate, with a long finish. A lovely wine for the table. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022). Don’t miss it!
