That wine is Picpoul de Pinet and it’s time to get acquainted with this playful Mediterranean."

"Light scents of yellow melon, apple and firm pear flesh form the nose of this attractive white. The light and breezy palate offers more of the same, framed by bright acidity and a kiss of sea spray on the close. Drink now. - LAUREN BUZZEO"

jeb dunnuck logo 250"The 2017 Le Jade Picpoul de Pinet offers slightly more oomph, with exotic lemon, citrus, and melon notes. It's clean, vibrant, has racy acidity, and a clean, crisp finish. It's another terrific white that sells for a song. Drink it over the coming summer months."

wa"Made from 100% Picpoul, the 2012 Picpoul de Pinet comes across like a classic Muscadet from the northern Loire Valley. Lots of crushed rock, grapefruit and lemon zest characteristics, in addition to more texture and flesh than one expects from this varietal, are found in this lovely, medium-weight, dry white. It is best consumed over the next year."
