Wines made from Gros Manseng grapes of South West
Discover the best wines made with Gros Manseng as a single variety or as a blend of South West.
Structured, aromatic whites with lively acidity and an ample mouth, featuring intense aromas of exotic fruits (pineapple, mango, passion fruit), ripe citrus, yellow peach, white flowers, honey and sweet spices. Made as nervy modern dry wines (Jurançon sec AOC, IGP Côtes de Gascogne) and sumptuous passerillage sweet wines (Jurançon AOC, Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh AOC). Late-ripening native grape of Béarn, the productive sibling of Petit Manseng.
French mosaic of strong identities south of Bordeaux. Cahors and its Malbec ("black wine"): deep reds with notes of blackberry, plum, violet, tobacco and cocoa, firm tannins. Madiran and its dense, age-worthy Tannat. Jurançon whites: golden sweet (apricot, honey, pineapple) and lively dry from Petit Manseng.
