The winemaker's pride
Located in the Béarn region, Domaine Montesquiou has seen several generations of winegrowers of character who have endeavored to reveal the best of the Pyrenean terroir of the Jurançon hillsides. Our white wines are produced with specific grape varieties: Gros Manseng for its freshness and aromatic power, Petit Manseng for its roundness and concentration, Camaralet and Petit Courbu for their finesse and character. These historical varieties thrive on our sunny, south-east facing slopes. Our vocation is to express our clay-siliceous terroir to the best of our ability in each of our wines by separating our parcels according to their grape varieties and their exposure. The grapes are harvested by hand, at optimum maturity, and each bunch is carefully picked by the same team and placed in boxes. The whole of our harvest is pressed and vinified by the two Montesquiou brothers at the Domaine located in the heart of the vineyard.
