Wine CategoryMedium-bodied, elegant, neutral whites

Tasting NotesTangy lemon aromas. A middleweight style of wine - neither light nor full, just very well-balanced, with zesty acidity and bite. Has an enjoyable silky feel on the tongue. Very pure and harmonious, with a little saline touch to finish. A totally classic example of the Picpoul grape.
