Discover the grape variety: Baroque
From a morphological point of view, Baroque seems to have common origins with Tannat. Still called Blanc Bordelais, this white grape variety is distinguished essentially by the characteristics of its leaves. Those that are still young are both yellowish and downy. Their bumps have a somewhat bronzed appearance. The adult leaves have angular teeth. The leaves are not very three-lobed and have a pubescent, downy blade. The Baroque is grown in the Adour basin, mainly in Tursan and in certain vineyards in the Gers. Its production area is therefore not very large. This grape variety manages to resist oidium, unlike other varieties, and its harvest must be well done and free of rot. The harvest must be well done and free of rot, which leads to a better result and a more successful wine production. Moreover, the development of Baroque must be slowed down in time, bearing in mind that this type of grape variety only matures about twenty days after Chasselas.

The word of the wine: Water stress
Lack of water. Water stress blocks the vegetative cycle of the vine, which uses all available resources to maintain the integrity of the plant, thus blocking the ripening process of the grapes.
