2022 Domaine Cauhape Symphonie de Novembre Jurancon (375ml)

Founded in 1980 when Henri Ramonteu began making wine on just one hectare of his family’s historic 16th-century farm, Domaine Cauhapé has grown into the undisputed flagship estate of Jurançon. Adored by top international sommeliers and featured on elite restaurant wine lists, yet remaining a hidden gem to most wine lovers, the 47-hectare property sits in the Pyrenean rain shadow, where warm föhn winds naturally concentrate the grapes on the vine without botrytis. Meticulously farmed and harvested entirely by hand through successive selective passes (tries) spanning October into January, Cauhapé crafts both vibrant dry whites and legendary late-harvest sweet wines that strike a breathtaking balance between exotic fruit purity and electric mountain acidity.

Harvested in early November and fermented in neutral French oak barriques, this step up in concentration delivers a richer, more full-bodied texture. It bridges the gap between freshness and depth, balancing sweeter, candied-fruit expectations with subtle wood complexity.
