This bright and lively wine opens with a fresh and zesty nose of pear, green plum, honeydew melon, fuji apple, orange slice and white blossom. Tart acidity leads on the attack and lifts chalk-dusted fruit alongside additional flavors of green apple. Pair with seafood and anchovy-laced dishes.

Description

It is an ancient Languedoc grape (and is also the name of the appellation where it is grown in Languedoc) whose name loosely translates to lip-stinger due to its bright acidity. Jadix Picpoul is the newest project from Jean-Christophe and Margaret Calvet of Aquitaine Imports and is an excellent addition to our French aisle. This is a gorgeous white, loaded with green apple, honey dew melon, lemon and a stony-mineral note. All of these clean, crisp flavors along with a light body that ends with a refreshing finish that lingers on the tip of your tongue. If you drink Italian Pinot Grigio, Spanish Albarino or Sauvignon Blanc from anywhere - this may be the next wine for you.

Tasting notes

100% Picpoul. Intense fruity bouquet of citrus and exotic fruits. Fresh in the mouth with good acidity and the unique hint of salinity.

Food Pairing: Pasta, Vegetarian, Poultry, Lean Fish, as an Aperitif.
