3 unusual facts about Gros Manseng


Gros Manseng

While the grape vines of Gros Manseng and Petit Manseng look very similar to each other, there are distinct differences.

Gros Manseng (sometimes translated: Large Manseng, rarely "Big Manseng") is a white wine grape variety that is grown primarily in South West France, and is part of the Manseng family.

The vine also produces much higher yields but the resulting wine is less elegant and rich than wine made from Petit Manseng.
