In 1838, during the reign of Louis-Philippe, Pascal Dartigalongue established himself in Nogaro. To mark the house's 180th anniversary, the family created this cuvée bearing the king's name: a blend of five vintages, 1979, 1983, 1986, 1992 and 1994, selected for their quality and complementarity, at 42% vol. The nose, highly expressive, combines white flowers, honey, blond tobacco and spices, followed by rancio and leather on aeration. The palate, with silky tannins, evolves towards candied fruit and a finish of lightly smoked liquorice. Silver Medal at the Concours Général Agricole 2025.
