Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh is a revival of an 18th century wine style. Local Gascon grapes are harvested late in Autumn in several pickings. The resulting sweet wine offers rich, concentrated flavours, with notes of marmalade and caramel coated tropical fruits, lifted by a fine citric acidity.
"A sweet wine balanced by crisp natural acidity - a delicious alternative to Sauternes!"
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.
