Baroque (grape)
Baroque (often spelled Barroque) is a white French wine grape planted primarily in South West France around the Tursan region. It can make full bodied wines with nutty flavors.〔J. Robinson ''Jancis Robinson's Wine Course'' Third Edition pg 100 Abbeville Press 2003 ISBN 0-7892-0883-0〕 Ampelographers suspect that the grape maybe a crossing of Folle Blanche (which it shares the synonym ''Bordeleza zuria'' with) and Sauvignon blanc.〔Oz Clarke ''Encyclopedia of Grapes'' pg 42 Harcourt Books 2001 ISBN 0-15-100714-4〕
==History==
While the exact origins of the grape are not clear, ampelographers believe it may be descended from a crossing of the French white grapes Folle Blanche and Sauvignon blanc.〔 While it was once grown throughout southwest France, today its plantings are primarily isolated to the Landes department which contains ''Vin délimité de qualité supérieure'' (VDQS) wine region of Tursan. In the 20th century, Baroque gained favor among vine growers because of its resistance to powdery mildew which decimated many other grape varieties. However, by the 1980s the grape was virtually on the edge of extinction because of the ripping out of vineyards in the Landes and converting the land to other agricultural and development enterprises.〔J. Robinson (ed) ''"The Oxford Companion to Wine"'' Third Edition pg 65 Oxford University Press 2006 ISBN 0-19-860990-6〕
Wine historian and expert Jancis Robinson notes that Baroque was saved from extinction by the efforts of chef Michel Guérard, owner of the 3 star Michelin rated restaurant ''Les Prés d'Eugénie'' in Eugénie-les-Bains. At the Tursan wine estate owned by himself and his wife, Guérard revived interest in the variety by producing an aromatic full-bodied Baroque-based that critics have described as "characterful".〔
