The Languedoc is hot. So, at first glance, it’s not the best place to grow Sauvignon Blanc and Picpoul (also known as Piquepoul) – both grapes need some cooling to keep their crispness. Luckily, these grapes are grown by the Thau lagoon. It’s the biggest saltwater lagoon in France – and it helps to moderate the intensity of the heat and sunshine. The result? This delicious Picpoul-Sauvignon Blanc has the best of both worlds. All the tropical fruit flavours which develop in intense sunshine – and all the cool-climate zing of a citrusy G&T. It’s lemony. It’s peachy. It’s got a lovely herbal edge. And there’s really nothing better to pair with it than oysters fresh from the lagoon.
