Visual appearance
A beautiful shiny and straw yellow color.
At nose
Very expressive with a bouquet of exotic fruits (pineapple), candied fruits, and honey. These aromas are very characteristic of Petit Manseng, a rare grape variety typical of the Southwest of France.
On the palate
A balanced wine on the palate with exotic fruit flavors and a beautiful freshness. Full-bodied with a very nice liveliness and a long finish.
Food pairings
As an aperitif, or on dishes with a hint of sweetness such as roasted turkey, poultry with currant jelly, duck confit with apples or a chicken salad and marinated mangoes.
