This sweet Jurançon is a deliciously enjoyable wine, ideal both for drinking now or cellaring. It serves as an especially great pairing to foie gras or chicken in cream sauce. The nose is typical of Gros Manseng: floral and exotic fruit (mango, pineapple) notes mingle together. On the palate, this cuvée is at once rich, full-bodied and fresh, with a lovely, long finish. A blend of equal parts Gros Manseng and Petit Manseng, whose vines are grown on a soil of silica and clay which is specific to this domain’s terroir. These two elements form Jurançon puddingstones. The grapes are harvested by hand, with successive selections, before undergoing vinification in temperature-controlled, stainless steel vats.

Jurançon Souch (Domaine de) serve at a temperature of 12°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Foie gras, Croustade aux pommes, Tarte fine aux poires.
