Uva Non Grata Gros Manseng

Uva Non Grata Gros Manseng is a distinctive and aromatic white wine, showcasing the often-understated brilliance of the Gros Manseng grape, typically cultivated in Southwest France (e.g., Juran??on, Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh). The name "Uva Non Grata" playfully suggests a grape that is sometimes overlooked, but this expression demonstrates its true potential. It is characterized by vibrant acidity and intense aromatics, often exhibiting complex notes of passion fruit, pineapple, grapefruit zest, and a subtle herbaceous lift. Depending on the vinification, it can be dry or off-dry, but always maintains a fresh, full-bodied presence. This wine is excellent when paired with sharp cheeses, white fish, or spicy Asian cuisine, offering a structured and refreshing experience.
