A crystalline, vibrant Jurançon Sec from Domaine Castéra the 2023 “XXIII” gently marries the vivacity of Gros Manseng with the depth of Petit Manseng, caressed by Pyrenean winds to yield a taut and energetic white. Mineral-tinged tension underlies bright citrus and floral tones, all shaped through lees aging in wood and grès for an elegant, refined frame.
