Domaine de Souch - Jurançon Sec 2009
Notes: Bettane & Desseauve 16/20, RVF 14.5/20
The estate's dry wine beautifully expresses the terroir of Jurançon and its local grape varieties: Gros Manseng, Petit Manseng, and a little Courbu. Fresh and pleasant on the nose, it is full-bodied and dense on the palate and, above all, very well balanced with lovely acidity and a lemony finish. Enjoy as an aperitif or with shellfish.

About the estate:
"With as much energy and enthusiasm as in the early days of Souch, Yvonne Hegoburu devotes herself full-time to this magnificent estate in the village of Laroin. A proponent of soil cultivation, this property is a perfect example of biodynamic viticulture in Jurançon and produces high-quality wines. Rigorous work in the vineyard (planted at an altitude of 300 meters) is complemented by careful sorting at harvest time and meticulous vinification, resulting in flawless wines. Lovers of great whites will be delighted with this very distinguished production."
