2013 Picpoul de Pinet Les Girelles £9.99
Details of UK stockists for the Picpoul
Recently I was sent three new wines from Jean-Luc Colombo. Although he is based in Cornas these come from further south. There is a red and white Côtes du Rhône sourced from the southern Rhône and a Picpoul de Pinet.
2013 Picpoul de Pinet Les Girelles
This is quite rich and weighty for a Picpoul with light acidity with some floral notes. It was good
with Scottish haddock plainly baked with a little milk and butter.
