Clos Guirouilh Jurançon Sec la Peïrine 2013

Snoothrank:

Really nice Jurancon blend of Petite Manseng and Gros Manseng. On the nose there's notes of creamy lemon and a hint of almond. On the palate there is nice lemon pith, honey and a touch of almond. The acidity is nice but not overt and the finish is of medium length with just a slight hint of tannin. Read More

I've been trying to... Read More

Chateau de Jurque Jurancon Sec 2007

Snoothrank:

Very expressive crispy wine with strong hints of lemon and minerals in both taste and smell, but also a somewhat bitter taste not unlike grapefruit.Very light and pale colour, very clear. Some semblances of sauvignon blanc from the Loire, but also a bit like a chenin blanc from the same region. This gros / petit manseng wine from the South West... Read More
