Clos Lapeyre - Jurançon Moelleux - Magendia 2018

A wonderful introduction to Jura chardonnays with this cuvée Patchwork. A very fine, bright nose hints at floral notes. The palate, fruity and mineral, is racy and endowed with good length. A lovely gourmet wine.

Parker Guide: 90/100

La Part Davan de Camin Larredya is a gourmet wine characterized by volume and structure. Its assertive character remains bordered by a velvety mouthfeel and a lively yet coated finish in long fruitiness. The aromatic range still expresses fresh fruit (white peach, citrus) complemented by a touch of minerality.

A very great Champagne Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru. This reserve cuvée from Champagne De Sousa is very expressive on the nose with notes of white fruits. The attack on the palate is greedy and fruity. The finish is taut and clean. A superb champagne for aperitifs and meals.

Gras Moutons du domaine de la Haute Févrie is a Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur lie with a very powerful, generous body, extrovert in flavor. The finish with lovely ripe bitters and praline nuances is particularly promising. A superb bottle from Domaine de la Haute Févrie !

This organic Jurançon from Clos Lapeyre is lively and taut. The palate is complex, with exotic fruit and pineapple, typical of Jurançon wines. Aged without barrels, it retains its beautiful tension. Ideal with foie gras.

Mantoulan is the name of a locality 500 m to the east of Clos Lapeyre. It's an old, renowned wine-growing area that has been replanted at high density with traditional Jurançon grape varieties from massal selection: Petit Manseng, Courbu and Camaralet. The plot covers 1.60 hectares and produces 4,000 to 6,000 bottles a year. This grand vin de gastromie is long, complex and devilishly well-balanced!
