Discover the grape variety: Jurançon blanc
Mainly cultivated in the south-western part of France, white Jurançon is part of the Cognac and Armagnac grape varieties. It is not related to Jurançon Noir, even though it is quite similar. This grape variety comes from a cross with the white gouais and is in the process of disappearing. Its young leaves are bubbled and downy. The more mature ones have 5 lobes and a petiolar sinus. Jurançon Blanc has small, compact clusters and medium-sized berries. It is hardy and vigorous. Jurançon blanc is associated with an average budburst. This variety is upright. To avoid exhaustion, it is recommended to prune it short. Jurançon often suffers from gray mold, mildew and powdery mildew. Its maturity is early in the third period. In other words, this grape variety matures 20 days after Chasselas. The white wines obtained with white Jurançon are low in alcohol, acid and neutral. If they are distilled, the result is an eau de vie that is not very strong and not very marked.
