Domaine Bellegarde - Jurançon Dry Selection 2023
Located in the Pyrenean foothills, Domaine Bellegarde strives to express the identity of the Jurançon terroir with sincerity and precision. This family estate showcases traditional Southwestern grape varieties, cultivated with rigor and respect for the environment, to produce balanced, aromatic wines that are faithful to their origins.
The Selection 2023 vintage exemplifies the typical characteristics of great dry Jurançon wines. Produced primarily from Petit Manseng, it benefits from a vintage characterized by beautiful sunshine and perfectly controlled ripeness. Aged in Italian amphorae for 12 months, the result is a dry, taut, and expressive wine that highlights the minerality and freshness of the terroir while offering a beautiful fruity intensity.
The pale yellow color with green highlights emphasizes its youth and liveliness. The nose reveals a seductive aromatic palette, blending fresh citrus, white-fleshed fruits, and spring flowers, complemented by a delicate mineral touch. On the palate, the attack is frank and dynamic, driven by a balanced acidity that emphasizes the purity of the fruit. The finish, long and refreshing, reveals lemony and slightly exotic notes, offering an authentic and modern expression of dry Jurançon.
Grape varieties: Gros Manseng (10%), Petit Manseng (90%)
