Place: Jurançon, France

Grape: Petit and Gros Manseng

Vibe: Off The Charts

Jeeez. What a wine. Young, this is full of flinty, sesame-laced reduction that gives way to a hectic array of fruit and flower. Saline and spine-tingling, I can imagine this is gonna age so well. There is a LOT going on here, and all of it is delicious. The acidity slices through it all like a warm knife through butter. Desert island drinking.
