“An authentic cuvée built around Gros Manseng, with just under half 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 luscious, it is round and fresh on the palate, with a long finish. A lovely wine to enjoy with a meal. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022). Worth trying!
