Domaine Ornezon Picpoul de Pinet
This is one of the principal South of France holiday wines! Towards late summer each year we are asked by those returning from their holiday in the Languedoc for a bottle of this wonderfully fresh, invigorating wine, to go with their oysters. This is full-flavoured with aromas of flowers, citrus fruits, aniseed and fennel on the nose. It is a perfect match for seafood.
Producer Profile
The Florensac terroir is one of the oldest planted vineyards near the Mediterranean coast and unusually for the South of France, this is a specialist white wine producer benefiting from the cooling breezes that moderate the heat.
Grown on high ground in vineyards that are planted on clay and limestone soils. The vines are night harvested in order to preserve aromas and freshness. Once fermented the wine is aged on fine lees with regular stirring of the lees in order to bring out richness and roundness. A bright and pale yellow wine with very fresh aromas of white flowers, acacia and hawthorn, this is a “gourmet” Picpoul.
