Domaine Camin Larredya Jurançon "La Virada" dry white 2023

RVF Guide to the Best Wines of France 2026 (sept. 2025): 94/100. The vintages follow one another and are certainly not alike, but the Grussaute signature remains. If it must be qualified, finding a common thread, it is certainly fullness, of taste, of embodiment. The difference in profile of the terroirs from which the dry wines originate is materialized in the wines. La Virada: intensely spicy, fragrant, hedonistic, extroverted, yet pushing the precision of detail far.
