Madiran and pacherenc of
the vic-bihl divide the same country of
name. The madiran is red whereas the
pacherenc is white. Its name comes from the
inhabitant of Béarn “pachets in renc” (=
stakes in row) and “Vic-Bihl” is the name of
the Western part of the zone (= old
country). The white can dry, fresh and be
scented, or marrowy, be obtained by
passerillage and which have a well marked
personality.
After the attacks of will phylloxéra at the
end of XIXe century, the vineyard of madiran
had almost disappeared. Its revival since
1950 is spectacular, passing 40 ha to 1500
ha. The vines are established on successive
hills whose grounds are particularly varied,
energy of muddy boulbenes in bottom of the
slopes to the rollers in top of the hills
and the ground argilo-limestones which give
the most complex wines..
Jams, honey, canned : of
duck (foie gras, pie, crystallized,
steaklet); of trout of the Pyrenees (soup,

Sausage, dry sausage,
ventrèche and the famous Black ham of
Bigorre. The fine experts will recognize it,
the others will discover it, this famous
black pig of Bigorre!
In the Fifties, it failed well to disappear,
not answering the requirements of intensive
production preached at this period… But the
return to the sure values and the good
tastes of formerly enabled him to make a
true return on the front of the scene…
The race is old and very pure, its
conditions of breeding answer an ancestral
know-how. Its meat is considered excellent,
of an incredible and goûteuse smoothness
like step two! Ideally used for the
saltings, the black pig allows the
realization of hams absolutely sublimes. A
pure happiness...

strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrants,
currant, blackberry, bilberry,…
