100% Picpoul - The name of the grape comes from ‘pique-poul’ meaning ‘stings the lips’’ because of its mouth-wateringly high acidity
From a tiny appellation of Picpoul de Pinet, the vineyards are found to the south of Pezenas on the shores of the Bassin de Thau - a saltwater lagoon devoted to the cultivation of shellfish
That bottle! As a reference to the god of the sea, the easily identifiable Neptune bottle was created by the Verrerie Ouvrière d'Albi in 1994. Marked with the seal of the cross of Languedoc & engraved with the name “Picpoul de Pinet”
