For whites head for the Jurançon, in the foothills of the Pyrenées, where intensely green, herbaceous, occasionally minerally wines are made from the Gros Manseng grape (Jurançon Sec) and light, honeyed sweet wines are made from Petit manseng. Try Domaine Castera Moelleux – a medium-sweet, distinctly marmaladey wine with zesty acidity.
