MORE INFORMATION

Premium Petit Manseng

Some wines are familiar. Others remind us why discovery is exciting.

The Cavani Premium Petit Manseng was created to showcase a different side of Uruguay—one rooted in craftsmanship, curiosity, and a deep respect for the land. Co-created by Edinson Cavani alongside respected Uruguayan winemakers, this wine reflects the same values that define the brand itself: authenticity, passion, and pride in sharing Uruguay with the world.

Petit Manseng is one of the wine world's hidden treasures, capable of producing wines with remarkable richness while maintaining freshness and balance. Sourced from Las Violetas in Canelones and crafted from carefully selected hand-harvested fruit, this expression undergoes fermentation in French oak barrels followed by fifteen months of aging with traditional bâtonnage, creating exceptional depth and texture.

In the glass, layers of apricot, citrus, and toasted honey unfold gradually, supported by a full-bodied palate and vibrant acidity that keeps the wine energetic and precise. The result is a wine that feels luxurious without becoming heavy—complex enough for contemplation, yet inviting enough to share around the table.

This is not simply a white wine. It is an invitation to discover a side of Uruguay that few people know exists.
