Ian D'Agata, TerroirSense

Vivid, deep golden-yellow colour. Extremely intense and piercing aromas of ripe papaya, mango, tropical fruit cocktails, honey, and sweet spices. Downright decadent in the mouth, boasting exceptional inner-mouth perfume and honeyed flavours of tropical fruit jellies, vanilla, and passionfruit nectar. So rich and thick it coats the mouth from start to finish, but despite it being so massive harmonious acidity leaves an impression of balance and grace behind on the long suave aftertaste. To be crystal-clear, this is a world class Petit Manseng wine: richer and bigger if perhaps less nuanced than the best of southwestern France, but make no mistake about it, this is very much in the same league. Very, very well done here, from the estate that showed everyone in China what a bright future petit Manseng and its wines could have in the country.

 

Domaine Franco-Chinois introduced Petit Manseng to China from France in 2001. Annually harvested between November and December, the late harvest results in a juice yield of 35% to 40%. This timing concentrates and enhances the grapes flavor compounds and acidity.
