Tasting - Les Perles Piquepoul

Name: Les Perles Piquepoul
Variety: 100% Piquepoul
Region: Cotes de Thau
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95

Vintage Cellar 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: I've never had Piquepoul before, but this wasn't bad! It had a citrus-y and apple nose to it. The taste was pretty tangy. I thought it was a unique white.

I tried this wine on its own without food.
