Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
There is a farmyard character here but it certainly doesn’t detract from the light, fresh juicy cherry character. It’s attractive, with bright acidity to finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A blend of typical Gascon grapes gives a lemon and citrus wine, very fresh, tangy. There is plenty of acidity and an attractive lightness. Screwcap.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Named after the dry wind that blows through the Jurançon vineyards, this light, poised sweet wine has typical freshness, the botrytis never cloying but immersed in currants, fresh apricots. The wine has a lively, buoyant, sweet character.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A big, bold wine with fine acidity and firm dark black tannins. It has proper weight, richness as well as a big structure. The core is dense, mineral, tight. Drink now, but could age for several years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Mineral, firm wine, although at the same time it has plenty of black plum fruits surrounding the core of dark tannins. The resulting wine is one that manages to combine the structure of Cahors while bringing out a fruity character.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
There is weight here, powered by yellow fruits and a taut, linear texture. The feel is almost chalky, with acidity and a complex mouthfeel. The finish is crisp and fresh.

Very fruity aromas, powered by black berry fruits. The palate is soft, ripe and fruity with black fruits and sweet tannins. The wine is supple, accessible. Screwcap.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Firm wine, with tannins to match the chunky structure. Black currant fruits go with acidity, green pepper and spice. It’s a delicious wine from an almost unknown appellation in the central mountains of France.
