Lionel Osmin & Cie 2011 Foehn (Jurançon)

Country: France / Foehn
Variety: Gros and Petit Manseng Southwest France
Winery: Lionel Osmin & Cie / Jurançon

This is a rich and luscious wine dominated by Petit Manseng, a small berry/small-yield grape from Gascony, the home of unusual grapes. It’s aromatic, ripe and honeyed with ripe peach cut by the pineapple freshness. It’s a gorgeous wine now but it really should be aged so drink from 2020.
