Petit Roubie Picpoul de Pinet Sur Lie
£16.95
Taste
Rich with mineral and full flavours
Aroma
Intensely aromatic with notes of fresh peach and pear.
Description
100% Piquepoul Blanc aged on its fine lees for 7 months. Pale gold-coloured dry white wine with brilliant green pearly highlights. Beautiful aromatic intensity with notes of fresh fruit (peach, pear) amplified by marine scents. Rich on the palate. The wine’s lively attack is accompanied by a fat roundness and fine maturity, lingering generously on the palate. This cuvée goes perfectly with fish in sauce, grilled fish and white meats.
94 Points – “Golden yellow in colour, the aromas span ripe pineapple and candied lemon peel to creamy leesy richness, followed by intensely salty lemons. The characteristic salty impression is strong here, making this mouthwatering, appetising and every so delicious. With its weighty mouthfeel, its ripe citrus and stone fruit character, and its honeyed complexity, this would work well at the table. It still has a fresh lick of lime and grapefruit to keep it zesty, too. Yum” – Natalie Earl Decanter – Picpoul de Pinet: 10th anniversary and 10 wines to try (2022 vintage)
