Domaine Bellegarde Pierre Blanche Jurançon Sec 2023 Review

Tucked into the corner of the French Pyrenees, the Jurançon appellation is often overlooked. It’s historically known for its sweet, dessert-style wines, but the local grapes Petit and Gros Manseng, can also produce deliciously textured dry whites. This bottling from Domaine Bellegarde is a great example, with rich notes of baked apples, salted almonds, and citrus. The palate has a waxy, rounded texture that ends on a creamy, creme brûlée-like finish (without the sweetness).
