The Montesquiou family have been a source of Jurancon wines for generations, today it is run by brothers Sébastien and Fabrice who have raised the quality of the estate to a new level. The brothers employ many of the techniques of biodynamic viticulture so that no insecticides and herbicides are used. This philosophy demands that they put a great deal of work in their vineyards to produce healthy grapes that have good balance between ripeness and acidity. Having picked healthy grapes the brothers intervene as little as possible in the winery allowing both the grapes and vineyards to speak for themselves. The results are stunning. Grown on beautiful sloping hillsides in the foothills of the Pyrenees, this blend of Gros Manseng, Petit Manseng and Petit Courbu is a wonderful, dry style of Jurancon, with ripe apple, peach, lime and orange and a delicious minerality. Something a little different for fans of Loire Sauvignon blanc or Picpoul.
