Le Figaro Vin notes that 1979 was a year of abundant harvest, and that this vintage retains a remarkable freshness. The estate offers its own reading: a deep orange colour, an open and expressive nose dominated by spices and exotic wood, an exceptionally gentle entry, then a rising intensity that builds to an explosive finish. It was awarded 94/100 by the Gilbert & Gaillard guide. A single harvest, distilled and aged in Eauze by the Dèche family. For a 1979 birth year, the 70 cl bottle at 42% vol. comes presented in a wooden gift box.
