Racine, Picpoul de Pinet, White
Established in the South of France, and not unlike with age-old vineyards, we find our inspiration in our long fruitful relationship with the best producers. Here you will come across our Picpoul from vineyards nearing the blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
The story
Situated north of Etang de Thau, the terroir is mainly composed of limestone clay soils. The proximity of the Lagoon and of the Mediterranean Sea, pays a thermal regulator role by reducing the temperature variations. “Marin”, “Tramontane” and “Mistral” winds play an important role on the sanitary state of the grapes in the vineyards.
Vinification
Night-time harvesting, pressing with juice selection, must clarification at low temperatures, fermentation at 16°-17°C in stainless steel tanks, completed malolactic fermentation, light filtration before bottling. No oak treatment.
