Customer Reviews
Jurancon, Southwest France
All of Camin Larredya's cuvees are named after the parcels from which they come. "La Virada" comes from Bearnaise dialect for "the valley," and this particular plot is situated in a local valley at altitudes ranging from 250 to 325 meters. Its soils are dominated by the local "puddingstones," sedimentary stones eroded from the Pyrenees which have been weathered and rounded by rivers, not unlike the galets of Chateauneuf-du-Pape.
The vineyard contains a noteworthy amount of the local grape Camaralet de Lasseube, which originates in the Jurancon commune of Lasseube, and nearly went extinct. The Grussautes are perhaps more responsible for its survival than any other grower, and this cuvee gives us the opportunity to celebrate the uniqueness of the variety. Compared to their other Sec bottling (La Part Davant), La Virada offers more richness, and deeper flavors of dark honey, baked apple and cinnamon. The balancing, high acidity typical of the region is there, allowing the wine to drink well now or age for 10+ years.
