Tournée du Sud Picpoul de Pinet 2024
£11.45
The wine
A poised and refreshing Picpoul with lifted aromas of grapefruit, citrus, stone fruits and delicate notes of acacia flowers. Richly concentrated with a zingy acidity and a salty tang on the mouthwatering finish. Picpoul is grown on the shore of the Etang de Thau and has been drunk with the oysters farmed in that same lagoon for as long as anyone can remember.
The producer
Tournée du Sud
View all Tournée du Sud winesTournee du Sud is built on a simple idea: a tour of the south of France, told through its wines rather than its roads. The name nods to the cycling tradition of the region, and to the touriste-routiers who rode it for the pleasure of the thing.
The range moves across the appellations of the Midi, picking up a Picpoul de Pinet from beside the Etang de Thau, a Sauvignon Blanc, a Viognier, a Pinot Noir and a Merlot along the way. Each is chosen to show its grape and its corner of the south clearly, at a price that invites everyday drinking.
