DOMAINE FÉLINES JOURDAN Picpoul de Pinet 2015
| Grape varieties: | 100% Picpoul blanc
| | Alcohol: | 12.5% | | Region: | Picpoul de Pinet AC (Languedoc) | | Serving temperature: | 8 - 12°C | | Price: | CHF 12.50 | A first class location for growing grapes, a moderate output and a perfectly timed vintage plus a modern wine production make Félines Jourdan an outstanding producer of the region.
Even his wine making is everything but conventional. The fermentation lasts between 6-8 weeks at a temperature of 17 -18°C. After that the wine will go on with a yeast process of another 3 months. The result is a full body white wine with a lot of softness, yet thanks to its lively acidity it retains freshness with aromas of citrus fruit, white peaches and a whiff of aniseed and fennel. Best as aperitif or with asparagus, fish, oysters, mussels, white cheeses, antipasti and exotically seasoned dishes.
