Drinking Window: 2024 - 2026
From vineyards close to Etang de Thau and the Mediterranean, this good value Picpoul has nice freshness and varietal character. Elegant citrus aromas with hints of pear lead to a crisp mineral citrus palate with some pear-fruit ripeness mid-palate, but finishing with a fresh snap thanks to the variety's signature high acidity. A versatile summer white at a great price.
