Jean-Marc Grussaute has elevated his estate to the pinnacle of the Jurançon appellation, thanks to his eclectic production of both dry and sweet white wines. A bit of history: although the estate was acquired in 1900, it wasn’t until 1970 that the vines began to flourish, with the cultivation of Petit and Gros Manseng. Jean-Marc joined the family estate in 1988 to assist his mother. Today, he is supported by a dedicated team of around ten people. Covering 11 hectares, Camin Larredya (‘Camin,’ meaning ‘path’ in the local dialect) paves the way to excellence. Whether it’s dry or sweet white wine, the estate shines through its use of traditional Jurançon grape varieties: mainly Petit and Gros Manseng, complemented by Petit Courbu, Camaralet, and Lauzet. Certified organic since 2007, Jean-Marc Grussaute focuses on sustainable practices, with manual harvests and limited yields His approach, both in the vineyard and cellar, centres around expressing the purest character of the terroirs. This deep respect for nature is reflected in the names of the cuvées, inspired by the plots they come from. The Revue du Vin de France Guide edition of Best wines in France has awarded Jean-Marc Grussaute the prestigious third (and ultimate) star, a record for a winegrower from the South-West!
This is undoubtedly one of the top estates in the Pyrenean foothills, which the iDealwine team wholeheartedly recommends. Indeed, we’ve tasted Jean-Marc’s wines multiple times, and they never disappoint!

A blend of raisined Petit and Gros Manseng grapes, this sweet Jurançon has been matured for six months on fine lees in 225-litre casks. Its beautiful golden appearance precedes a highly indulgent bouquet in which notes of exotic fruit, quince, apricot and honey rub shoulders. The palate is perfectly poised, offering a subtle combination of roundness, freshness and indulgence. Allow us to suggest a few surprising (but divine) pairings such as blue cheese, roasted poultry or spicy cuisine.
