Tasting Notes
This
wine is a bright pale yellow in the glass with some green hints. It is very
complex on the nose with notes of citrus, white flowers, lime, and mineral
aromas. This wine has an upbeat freshness. On the pallete this Picpoul has a
lemony zing and subtle flavours of floral, ripe, juicy pears. The finish is
bone-dry and crisp with a zippy balanced acidity.
