L'Ormarine Duc de Morny Picpoul de Pinet

Region

Languedoc, Southern France, France

Vintage:

2023

Producer:

Cave de l'Ormarine

Grapes:

Picpoul

Wine Description:

Gently aromatic, ripe melon fruit and fresh citrus on the nose. The palate is ripe but retains excellent freshness, balanced by a touch of white pepper spice that is very typical of this grape variety. Deliciously long, the finish shows bright fruit and a clean, saline/mineral edge.

Tasting Note:

Slightly perfumed, ripe melon fruit on the nose. The palate is weighty and ripe but remains fresh and saline. After a well-rounded attack, the palate is lifted up by a crisp note typical of the wines from this terroir.

Food Suggestion:

Picpoul vines grow just inland from the Étang de Thau, home to southern Languedoc's famous oyster & mussel beds. Along the coast you'll find cabins where locals gather to feast on mussels or 'huitres braisees' (oysters cooked over a fire pit) which is perfect with a glass of Picpoul de Pinet.
