Description

With most Picoul de Pinet coming from co-operatives it good to have one from a family run estate. Owned by sixth generation growers Guillaume Allies and his wife, Marion. This estate is located in the small, tranquil village of Pomerols in Southern France’s Languedoc region. The vineyards face a saline lake called ‘Bassin de Thau’ adjacent to the Mediterranean Sea, where oyster beds abound. The vineyards benefit from a micro-climate which helps grapes reach ideal ripeness and maintaining their classic freshness, therefore produce lively, fruit-driven wines. With floral notes of hawthorn and acacia on the nose and a fresh mineral and citrus wrapped fresh palate. Classic with oysters and shellfish.
