Exceptional sweet wines obtained by on-vine drying, with an unctuous mouth balanced by cutting acidity, featuring intense aromas of candied pineapple, mango, candied citrus, dried apricot, honey, dried fruits and sweet spice notes. Very high ageing potential. Star of Jurançon moelleux AOC and Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh AOC, also made as ambitious dry wines. Very late-ripening native grape of Béarn (South-West France).
Heart of the Yadkin Valley AVA (2003), first AVA of North Carolina on the northwest hills of the state. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are the signature reds with blackcurrant, plum, black cherry and a herbaceous touch, balanced tannins. Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Petit Verdot add structure. Chardonnay, Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc offer aromatic whites.
