Mare Nostrum Picpoul de Pinet is a lean, crisp and zesty French white with a mouthwatering fruity palate.
This wine hails from the Languedoc near Montpellier, one of France’s largest winegrowing regions.
The Montagnac cellar was established in 1937. Today, its vineyards span across 7 communes along the shores of Thau lake, nestled in the hilly terrain of Hérault. Local legend says that Picpoul vines need to have their ‘head in the wind and their feet in the water’, which is why you’ll find the majority of plantings along the Bassin de Thau, an exposed saltwater lagoon.
Covering approximately 2,000 hectares, grapes are processed at 2 distinct locations, primarily on clay-limestone soil with occasional patches of marl.
The climate is Mediterranean, characterized by dry, sweltering summers and milder conditions near the coast.
Producers harvest the grapes during the cool night and immediately shield them with inert gases to prevent oxidation.
They employ direct pressing with skin maceration, followed by cold must settling to maximise aromas.
The wine displays a pale yellow hue with shimmering hints of green.
It offers a bouquet of intricate floral notes and ripe white peach, delivering a well-rounded and vibrant palate. The finish is then refreshing and pleasantly acidic.
Mare Nostrum Picpoul de Pinet pairs perfectly as an aperitif or alongside seafood, fish, and also pasta dishes.
