Wine Expert Note:

Pouring a luscious mahogany color, Galant des Abbesses entices the senses with a highly aromatic bouquet. It exudes rich aromas of dried fruits like figs, raisins, and dates, melding with captivating notes of toffee, spices, and a hint of orange peel. The palate is a velvety tapestry of complex flavors, including dried cherries, spiced plums, caramel, and traces of nutmeg and cinnamon. This fortified wine strikes a remarkable balance between sweetness and acidity, leading to a finish that is both long and rewarding. Touches of chocolate and a subtle warmth from the Marc du Jura linger on the palate, making Jean Bourdy's Galant des Abbesses a memorable, indulgent experience.
