Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh is an ancient late-harvest wine style traditional to the Gascon region and was effectively revived by award-winning cooperative winery Plaimont. Rich, luscious and honeyed, this special cuvée displays notes of quince and pineapple, balanced by the pristine, mouthwatering acids of this rare varietal in its home terroir: Gascony.
"This is a special cuvée of Petit Manseng grapes grown at the foothills of the Pyrénées to honour our 30-year long partnership with Plaimont. "

“Gascony's Plaimont is a co-op; buy the 30th Anniversary blend - a rare late harvest, spiced apricot petit manseng gem .”
France is without doubt the world’s supreme wine-producing country, unmatched for the finesse, style and sheer diversity of its wines. France’s revered wine regions form a roll of honour beyond compare. The enduring appeal of France’s classic wine styles turns on the peculiarly French – and often controversial – concept of terroir, the belief in wine with a ‘sense of place’, with flavours and textures.
