clos lacabe 1993
Reference: 103378Stock: 1 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
jurançon wines did not wait for the birth of the aoc in 1936 to be appreciated by oenophiles: as early as 1553, they were served at the baptism of king henri iv. the reputation of the vineyard quickly spread throughout the world, but it too fell victim to phylloxera at the end of the 19th century, and then fell into oblivion, before being reborn some twenty years ago, under the impetus of a few well-informed wine growers. situated to the south-west of pau, jurançon benefits from both the mildness of the ocean and the rigour of the mountains. the late season, generally sunny and swept by warm winds, gives rise to the "late harvest" between november and january. as for the aoc "jurançon sec", which today represents 75% of the region's production, it was created much more recently, in 1975. jurançon has sweet notes of candied fruit, quince, lychee, honey, cinnamon and toast, and can be aged for more than twenty years.
