DESCRIPTION

The Jurançon Doux from Château de Jurque is a luscious sweet wine crafted in the foothills of the Pyrenees. Made primarily from Petit Manseng grapes harvested late to capture concentrated sugars and vibrant acidity, it delivers both richness and freshness. With years of bottle aging, this 2009 vintage has developed remarkable depth, complexity, and elegance, offering a harmonious balance between opulent fruit and refined structure.

EYE

A radiant golden hue with amber highlights, reflecting its maturity.

NOSE

Intense aromas of candied citrus, apricot, honey, and exotic fruits, layered with notes of dried flowers and a touch of spice.

MOUTH

Rich and velvety, with flavors of ripe tropical fruit, quince, and acacia honey. Balanced by fresh acidity, it offers a long, elegant finish with lingering notes of spice and sweetness.

PAIRING

Ideal with foie gras, blue cheese, or fruit-based desserts such as tarte tatin. It also shines as a contemplative wine on its own, perfect for special occasions.

Château de Jurque

Château de Jurque is a family estate located in the heart of Jurançon, a historic appellation renowned for its expressive sweet wines. Guided by respect for terroir and tradition, the estate cultivates its vines on steep, sun-drenched slopes. Their meticulous approach yields wines that embody the purity and character of the region, celebrated for their aromatic intensity and aging potential.

Sud-Ouest

Known as France's hidden corner, this area south of Bordeaux and near the Spanish border has much of the quality of Bordeaux wines but without the high price tags. There are four sub regions each with unique soil, grapes and climate. Like Boardeaux, the vineyards can be found along the Dordogne river where the climate is slightly warmer. The Cahors region is the most famous and is known for being the birth place of the malbec grape. Their wines are aged in oak, deeply inky colored and rich in tannins. Madiran showcases a unique highly tannic red grape call Tannat giving bold dry style red wines. Lasty this region produces excellent approchable and aromatic dry and sweet white wines, from the Côtes de Gascogne with grapes such as Colombard, Sauvignon Blanc or Gros and Petit Manseng. The Sud Ouest region is at the forefront of innovation and sustainability and full of great valued wines to discover and share.
