Opened on Friday night this was an interesting botrytized sweet wine with a bit of barley sugar, decent but nothing special. 48 hours later kept in a domestic fridge it has some lovely pineapple fruit showing through. Quality now. Open at least a day before drinking.

Hints of pineapple, aniseed and honey on the nose. Also dried apricot on the palate, with smooth, well balanced acidity and sweetness. This vintage should age nicely for a good few years. But is equally drinking well now. Comfort wine. Excellent, 89.

Yellow in colour. Aromas of honey, raisins, figs, dried apricot. On the palate thick, velvety, concentrated, but balanced with good acidity. Long, pleasant finish.

Beauty noise of honey and apricot, taste of bright fruits, honey with high acidity, very fresh and clean, not thick or super sweet but tasty as an appertiff or with light to medium dessert. One of the best Jurancon.

Well balanced grapfruit and melon, and deceptively full as the sweetness tails off...

Smooth & silky. Vieilli bien en plus. Équilibré, mielleux, subtil. Rien n'accroche.

Slightly lacking in complexity but a good, straighforward, wine and good value.

Plus dilué que le 2005. Notes de cantaloups et autres fruits. En bouche, sur la fraîcheur et le fruit.
