Has anyone else discovered this grape? I've tried four different wines from Jurancon and one from Pacherenc du Vic-bilh and have really liked them. The wine I'm drinking now is a Pacherenc du vic-bihl by Domaine Laffont, tasted over the last 4 days- explosive honey and yellow fruits with minerals and vanilla, quite sweet but with stong acidity that keeps the flavors singing- long honey and mineral finish. Best of the group so far. Next to Riesling this has to be my favorite grape. Why is it so obscure?
