Discover the grape variety: Manseng noir
Manseng noir is a grape variety from the western Pyrenees, close to tannat, a famous grape variety from southwest France. It is also called mansein, mansec or mancep in the Lot. It has been around since the 13th century and has given rise to Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng, two varieties of the same family but with quite different characteristics. Manseng noir remains essential for the AOC Béarn, where it is grown on about ten hectares. However, Manseng noir is a vigorous, productive and disease-resistant grape variety. It gives wines with a colourful robe, powerful, with aromas of black fruits and mushrooms, quite fine and with an interesting ageing potential.
