The Basque Country is a landscape on the Atlantic coast in the border region between Spain and France. The Autonomous Region of the Basque Country in Spain is not identical with the Basque Country in the cultural sense, which also includes the French Basque Country and the Basque-influenced region of Navarre (Nafarroa in Basque), particularly in the north-west.

Basque Country France

The French Basque Country (French: Pays Basque, Basque: Iparralde = northern Basque Country) forms the west of the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department in south-west France. It is divided into three areas marked in yellow on the map: Labourd (Basque: Lapurdi), Lower Navarre (French: Basse-Navarre, Basque: Nafarroa Beherea) and Soule (French: Pays de Soule, Basque: Zuberoa). The two AOC areas of Béarn and Irouléguy are located here.

Sigi Hiss

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
