In the intimacy of Madiran

Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh white wines are produced in the same area. Dry or sweet, they are made from an original grape variety which gives them their unique flavours and leaves a lasting impression on the palate.

Dry Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh awakens the senses. Fresh, lively and fruity, it adds a citrus note to salads. And if you’re a fan of the exotic, you’ll love it with sushi, for example!

The mellow version mirrors the Indian summers of Madiran. Loaded with the warmth and softness of the autumn sun, it goes well with foie gras, walnut desserts and lamb tajine with lemon. The aromas of candied fruit, honey and hazelnuts make this an intense, complex and harmonious wine.

Madiran is a wine with a long-standing reputation, dating back to Gallo-Roman times.

However, it was only at the very beginning of the 11th century that the Benedictine monks founded the Priory. At that time, consumption was mainly local. As a stopover on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, Pieuré introduced the wine to pilgrims, who began to make a name for it. In the 17th century, sea transport made it easier to export the sweet nectar, particularly to Holland, where it was particularly popular.

In 1948, Madiran wines were awarded theAppellation d’Origine Contrôlée. The winegrowers, passionate professionals, committed themselves to producing quality wine rather than quantity.
