UPC code: 7 84585 00068 5
2007 Cave de Pomérols, Picpoul de Pinet, Hugues Beaulieu
12/750ml
Vinification: Skin maceration for a few hours, pneumatic draining
and pressing, double cold decanting, temperature controlled
fermentation.
100%
Picpoul, aka Folle Blanche. Pale yellow color with green
tints. Fresh and fine aromas of grapefruit and exotic
fruit. Lime flavors, with typical focusing acidity, are hallmarks of
Picpoul. Our best value, this wine impresses novices and
hardened geeks equally.
Known as “the
Muscadet of the South” in France, this is to the Mediterranean
coast of France what Albariño is to northwest Spain…the
default wine for fresh shellfish & seafood.

2006 Cave de Pomérols, Picpoul de Pinet, Hugues Beaulieu
12/750ml
"Offering
excellent value, the 2006 Picpoul de Pinet Hugues Beaulieu (from
the region’s Cave de Pomerols coop) smells of clover, lemon,
and the refreshment of an ocean breeze. Subtly chalky and saline
on the palate and lilting in its refreshing lemon, lime, and
flowers, this is a perfect warm weather refresher or
“refrigerator white”.

Wine Advocate
(#173, Oct. 2007), 87 pts
"Fruity wine that loves a good barbecue"
"An absolutely
delicious light-bodied, tank-fermented and -aged white. Crisp
grapefruit, lemon, and lime notes jump from the glass. This wine
is a perfect match for grilled seafood or chicken."

banana taffy."
