Didier Dagueneau Jurancon Jardins de Babylone 2007 (500ml) (Organic)
Didier had always been interested in making sweet wine and had made several successful examples in the Loire. In 2002, Didier teamed with up his friend, Guy Pautrat, and purchased a few hectares of Petit Manseng in a vineyard shaped like a natural amphitheatre at the foot of the Pyrenees in Jurancon. The 2004 vintage was the first release and it was a great one. The wine is full, rich and viscous yet supported by mouthwatering acidity. The aromas and the palate feature peach and apricot flavors as well as caramel and citrus notes.

- Like Chateau d'Yquem! Review by Robert - CWV Team Member
-
Didier Dagueneau teamed up with his friend Guy Pautrat, and purchased a few hectares of old vine Petit Manseng in a vineyard shaped like a natural amphitheatre at the foot of the Pyrenees in Jurançon. The 2004 vintage was the first release. This 2007 wine is full, rich and viscous yet supported by mouthwatering acidity. The aromas and the palate feature peach and apricot flavors as well as caramel and citrus notes. In my mind, this rivals Chateau d'Yquem.
