Discover the grape variety: Manseng
Light and fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, fine tannins and fresh acidity, with aromas of red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant), spices and herbaceous notes. An airy, easy-drinking style. Preserved in a few heritage plots in Béarn and the French Basque Country for its historical value. A very rare autochthonous south-west variety, with no direct genetic link to the white petit and gros manseng despite the shared name.

The word of the wine: Solera
A method of maturing practiced in Andalusia for certain sherries, which aims to continuously blend older and younger wines. It consists of stacking several layers of barrels; those located at ground level (solera) contain the oldest wines, the youngest being stored in the barrels on the upper level. The wine to be bottled is taken from the barrels on the lower level, which is replaced by younger wine from the upper level, and so on.
