Along the Mediterranean, at the bottom of the Gulf of Lion, the Picpoul de Pinet terroir extends around the Thau Basin, in the middle of the Agde-Pézenas-Sète triangle over 1300 hectares. This is the largest white wine region in Languedoc.
Piquepoul is an old Languedoc grape variety that has been found on the banks of Lake Thau since Antiquity; this late-ripening grape variety, planted in a dry climate, takes advantage of the humidity of the late season to complete its maturation.
Piquepoul, the variety harvested last on the estate, matures very slowly. It is usually picked in late September/early October, after the red varieties.
Pale crystalline colour, discreet nose of white flowers, hawthorn and acacia blossom, and a lively ending on the palate.
This wine strikes a balance between acidity and roundness that gourmets find delightful.
