Tasting-Les Perles Piquepoul


Name: Les Perles Piquepoul
Variety: 100% Piquepoul
Region: Cotes de Thau (Languedoc-Roussillon)
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
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.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg VA)

My review: The smell of this wine was pleasant.  Ideas of green, full and fruity pear come to mind.  The taste was gentle and light, with a slight sour and effervescent finish.  Overall it was a pleasant wine.
I drank this without food.
