La Croix Gratiot – Bréchallune 2019 – Picpoul de Pinet

The nose is fruity and offers a certain generosity, maturity as well as a certain complexity. It reveals notes of lychee, sweet white grapefruit, quenette and small notes of crushed vine peach associated with a touch of nectaine, apple blossoms as well as very discreet hints of laurel (in the background) and racy minerality. The palate is fruity, mineral and offers a fine tension, a racy minerality, an acidulous frame, freshness, a beautiful finesse of the grain, maturity, roundness as well as precision. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of fresh / juicy quenette, juicy / fresh green apple and small notes of vine peach associated with a touch of mandarin, fine hints of lemon seed as well as fine hints of verbena and sage. Good length.
