This Picpoul opens with aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white flowers accented by saline and mineral notes. On the palate, it is light-bodied with crisp citrus and orchard fruit flavors. High acidity provides a mouthwatering, zesty character. A distinct mineral edge adds precision. The finish is dry, clean, and refreshing with a slight saline lift.
Zazou focuses on producing fresh, vibrant expressions of Picpoul from the coastal vineyards surrounding the Étang de Thau lagoon. The proximity to the sea gives the wine its hallmark salinity and bright acidity. The style is clean, refreshing, and built for seafood pairing.
Grapes are harvested early to preserve natural acidity and freshness. Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel to maintain aromatic purity. The wine is bottled young to emphasize vibrancy and crisp structure. The coastal terroir contributes to its signature saline character.
This Picpoul is a classic pairing for oysters and shellfish. It also complements grilled fish, shrimp, and light Mediterranean dishes. An ideal by-the-glass white for seafood-focused menus and summer service.
