Louis-Benjamin – Didier Dagueneau Jurancon Les Jardins de Babylone Demi-Sec white 2019

Les Jardins de Babylone Demi-Sec 2019 is one of Louis-Benjamin Dagueneau’s most exclusive and prestigious vintages. Produced on the steep slopes of Aubertin, in the heart of Jurançon, this cuvée is made exclusively from biodynamically grown Petit Manseng. The grapes are hand-harvested at peak ripeness to preserve a remarkable balance between natural richness and freshness. After spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, the wine is aged for at least five years in the estate’s famous large oak casks, specially designed for the domaine, allowing the grape variety’s full complexity to unfold without masking the purity of the fruit. The 2019 vintage offers a masterful expression of Petit Manseng, combining aromatic intensity, depth, and exceptional minerality. A true meditation wine, it ranks among France’s greatest sweet wines and has an aging potential well beyond thirty years.
