Camin Larredya, Jurançon Sec, La Part Davant, South West, France, 2022

Producer Profile

Jean Marc Grussaute is producing some of the most sought after Jurançons at his 11ha Camin Larredya.

The dry wines are precise, powerful, but fresh and perfectly balanced. The sweet wines also display the same liveliness and precision; the residual sweetness is always in harmony with the crisp, balancing acidity.

Viticulture

Jean-Marc Grussaute began bottling estate wines in 1988 and has been committed to organic farming practices since 2007, achieving organic certification with the 2010 vintage. He honours the individuality of his land by naming each wine after the specific vineyard parcel from which the grapes are harvested, emphasizing the distinct terroir and expression of each site. This approach reflects a deep respect for tradition, biodiversity, and the unique characteristics of Jurançon’s vineyards.

Tasting Note

This has a rich, creamy mouthfeel with lovely acidity, mineral like flavours and notes of crunchy apples and white blossom and some almond notes.
