JEAN-MARC VIGUIER

On these steep slopes dominating the Lot valley, the visitor of good wines discovers a tiny vineyard from which the whites of Entraygues (chenin and mauzac varieties), as well as the Lef reds, come from. The first ones are cultivated on narrow schistose floors, which give the wines character and finesse. Fresh and fruity, these whites accompany remarkably trout and sweet cheeses from Cantal. The second, powerful and terriens, are appreciated on more consistent dishes like the Villages Auvergne. The white wine of chenin from Jean-Marc Figeac is a good illustration of Entraygues's wines: beautiful dress, finesse, liveliness, citrus aromas. A great success.
