Lauzet is a Béarnese grape variety, part of the AOC of Béarn and Jurançon. This variety almost disappeared at the end of the 1980s. At that time, it only occupied a small cultivated area of 1 hectare in all. With the genetic diversity and the multiple plantings that have been carried out, it was able to reach, in 1994, 4 ha. The bunches and berries of Lauzet are all small. As a Pyrenean variety, it has a median lobe. The plant has a fairly early budburst, which takes place one week after Chasselas. As for its maturity, it is of the third period. This variety is fertile and somewhat vigorous, and is slightly susceptible to grey rot. Lauzet produces a wine of average quality. When it is vinified dry, it has adequate acidity. It gives off aromas of fruit and spices. It is often blended with other Pyrenean white grape varieties.
