Clos Lapeyre Jurancon Sec Vitatge Vielh 2021

$2899

Vitatge Vielh means old vines in Béarnais, and at Clos Lapeyre that means three plots of vines between 60 and 100 years old on the Domaine de Nays property. Mostly Gros Manseng, with about 30% Petit Manseng and a touch of the near-extinct Courbu and Camaralet, the juice ferments and ages in oak casks and large Stockinger vats for a full year on lees before bottling. The result is dramatically more complex than the regular Sec — richer, spicier, with grilled notes and candied citrus next to the mountain freshness. This is one of the most serious dry whites coming out of the Pyrenees right now and a wine that will reward years in the cellar.
