Discover the grape variety: Jurançon noir
Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate of simple red fruits (raspberry, cherry), gentle spices and floral notes. A thirst-quenching profile to drink young. Once widespread in the South-West, now marginal, preserved in a few heritage parcels in Béarn and Bigorre. Native French grape of the South-West, not to be confused with the Jurançon appellation (white wines).
