21 Feb Tasting - Les Perles Piquepoul



Name: Les Perles Piquepoul
Variety: Piquepoul
Region: Cotes de Thau
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95

Wine Shop 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 was a nice white for this week; it had an appealing nectarine flavor on the nose.  It had a light yellow color, and both the apple and nectarine flavors came through in the taste.  Overall pretty satisfying, and I gave it a 7 out of 10.

No food with this, but it would be nice with a picnic.
