This late harvest Jurançon moelleux is is 100% Petit Manseng, and bursts with exotic fruit flavours balanced with a beautiful acidity. Rich body and loads of acidity, with each layer adding something new. A fantastic introduction to sweet wine.

Story: For more than thirty-five years Domaine de Souch has been a leader in a modern style of Jurançon wines. Organic and Biodynamic since 1994, the southern-facing terraced vineyards are carved into steep slopes facing the Pyrenees Mountains. The Domaine’s sweet wines are a benchmark for the region and are served in fine restaurants worldwide.

Vinification: 35 year-old Petit Manseng vines growing on clay and limestone terraces which have less aromatics and more freshness. Grapes are hand-harvested around late October or early November, when they are very ripe, but have not yet begun to dry (passerillage). This keeps the freshness, and lively aromas of exotic fruits. The wine is vinified entirely in stainless steel tank. Best enjoyed at 12°C to 14°C.

Match it with: Blue cheeses, or creamy cheeses like Saint-Nectaire, veal blanquette, and

carmelised fruit desserts.
