Mare Nostrum Picpoul De Pinet
£13.99
The Montagnac cellar was been created in 1937 on the Montagnac
commune. Nowadays its soil stretches on 7 communes all along the Thau
lake at the mountainous foothills of the right shore of Hérault. Around
2,000 hectares are vinified on 2 different sites which are the most
important vinification areas in Hérault. A major part of the vineyard is
located on clay-limestone soils with some pockets of marl as well. The
climate is Mediterranean, dry and hot during summer, more temperate next
to the sea. The Picpoul legend : an old legend tells that Picpoul grape
was so browned and sweet at maturity that poultry on the shore of Thau
lake enjoyed this sweet varietal when wine-harvest was coming, that’s
how the name Pique Poule was born which has been modified then in
Piquepoul and gave its name to the AOC Picpoul de Pinet.
