The Domaine Tariquet – Dernières Grives 2023 is an iconic sweet wine from the Côtes de Gascogne, elegantly expressing the richness of the Gascon terroir. This particularly successful 2023 vintage displays a bright, radiant golden color. The nose is intense and complex, combining aromas of candied fruit, honey, exotic fruits, and white flowers.
