Notes from the Importer: "The white wine called Pacherenc du Vic-Bihl is about as obscure as you might hope to find...made entirely of Petit Manseng, though one might blend Arrufiac, Courbu, Sauvignon Blanc and/or Sémillon if one cared to. Laffont's wine offers an exceptional fragrance. It's honeyed to a degree, with notes of white flower fragrances and ripe, tropical fruit. In Gascony, this sort of wine is consumed with Foie Gras. Here in California, where state legislators have passed a bill to outlaw the production of Foie Gras, you might want to pair this with a rich dessert. Sheep's milk cheese is said to pair well with Pacherenc." (weimax.com)
