Tasting Notes

Nose

This delicious Picpoul has classic aromas of white flowers and stone fruit. 

Palate

The palate is crisp, refreshing and full of flavour with pear, lemon and pineapple fruits mingled with floral notes. 

Producer

Domaine de Guillemarine has been in the same family for generations and has recently undergone extensive renovations, with an increasing emphasis on lutte raisonnée farming practices. The local speciality Picpoul de Pinet is considered the 'Muscadet' of the south and is produced just metres away from the oyster beds of the Bassin de Thau. 

Alan's Personal Tasting Notes

"Picpoul is the Muscadet of the South and this one is made just metres from the oyster beds of the  Bassin de Thau. This is rapidly becoming my fave white - zippy, racy, refreshing with lots of stone fruit flavours and a delightfully refreshing lemon acidity - would love to try this with a plate of oysters."
