More informations about the variety Petit Courbu
Aromatic, structured whites with a golden robe, ample palate and preserved acidity, showing refined aromas of yellow fruits (pear, peach), candied citrus, white flowers, honey and limestone mineral notes. Adds roundness and richness to Béarn blends. Precious component of Jurançon AOC (dry and sweet), Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh AOC and Béarn AOC, complementing petit and gros manseng. Very rare autochthonous Béarn variety, making a comeback for its aromatic finesse.
More informations about the wines of France
France, home of Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne, is arguably the world's largest wine-producing country. For centuries, it has produced more wine - and apparently better quality - than any other country. Wine is embedded in French culture at almost every level of society; it is the drink of the elite and the common people, and a key symbol of Roman Catholicism, the majority religion in France. However, the lasting appeal of French wine is not necessarily its Volume or prestige, but rather the variety of styles available.
