Petit Manseng is an old variety, famous for being the only wine used to baptize the royal child, Henry IV.  Grown in the Jurancon region of southwest France at the foot of the Pyrenees, it makes what Jancis Robinson eloquently describes as “one of France’s unusually underrated treasures, Jurancon Moelleux, a seductively juicy, sweet, long-lived white.”
Our version shows the yeast-lees influence and vanilla character of barrel fermentation and maturation.  The full, unforgettable aromas of honey, tropical, and stone-fruit flavors carries the winemaker inputs well.  The result is a rich, oak-influenced white with a flavor all its own.
