Grape

Picpoul

Origin
Nestling in amongst the warm and red-biased appellations of the Languedoc, just a few miles from the Mediterranean coastline, Picpoul de Pinet is something of an unexpected find, offering a crisp and zesty white wine made from the rare Picpoul grape.
Taste
Youthfully pale lemon yellow, with a nose of lemon and lime fruit, and an intriguing blend of white blossom and green herb notes. Vibrant green apple fruit with a refreshingly dry and acidic finish.
Enjoy
Drink with fresh oysters, whitebait or grilled sardines.

Press Reviews

  • a wine with a crisp green apple, lemon rind and subtle salty tang (2012 Vintage)

    "Another useful seafood partner from Languedoc's answer to Muscadet, Picpoul de Pinet, a wine with a crisp green apple, lemon rind and subtle salty tang that was designed to go with the oysters and mussels farmed in the nearby Bassin de Thau. (The Wine Gang, www.thewinegang.com, June 2013)"

  • Stunning white wine to stock up with for summer (2011 Vintage)

    "Stunning white wine to stock up with for summer – lemony, light, fresh and as pure as a laser beam with a pristine ping that’s outstanding paired with fish. (Olly Smith, The Mail on Sunday, 24th June 2012)"

  • A star from the South of France (2011 Vintage)

    "Plump for a sparky, spicy, floral 2011 Picpoul de Pinet Villemarin, a star from the South of France (Jane MacQuitty, The Times, 5th May 2012)."
