Tasting - Les Perles Piquepoul
Variety: Piquepoul
Region: Cotes de Thau
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
Winery Review: Light and young, this is a straightforward but enjoyable selection that would be an ideal match for light fare such as grilled chicken salads or fluke. Apple flesh, nectarine, and sweet citrus oil aromas and flavors appear on the nose and palate, while the short finish is infused with a flavor of green melon rind.
My Review: This wine was extremely aromatic. Even from a few feet away I could smell a melon and citrus mixture. It tasted fresh and mouthwatering, with the melon and citrus coming through the clearest. I found that there was almost no finish, but the mid palate was enjoyable enough that I did not mind that.
I did not try this with food.
