WINE DESCRIPTION
Florensac Picpoul de Pinet Blanc is a white wine that hails from the Picpoul de Pinet appellation in the Languedoc region of southern France. This wine is produced by one of the 4 co-operatives that make much of the wine from the region. The vineyards where the grapes are grown benefit from the Mediterranean climate and the proximity to the Thau Lagoon, which imparts a unique saline character to the wine. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing of the grapes and fermentation at controlled temperatures, resulting in a crisp and refreshing style. With its vibrant acidity and notes of citrus and white flowers, Florensac Picpoul de Pinet Blanc is a perfect choice for seafood dishes or as an aperitif.

ORIGINS
Winery: Florensac
Region: Languedoc-Roussillon
Languedoc-Roussillon is an expansive wine region in the south of France stretching from Nîmes and Montpellier east along the Mediterranean coast and inland to the Spanish border. It is the largest wine-producing region in the country, with a long and rich history of winemaking.
The Languedoc-Roussillon region has been producing wine since the Roman Empire. It was the first region in France to produce sparkling wines, and it has been a major producer of fortified wines since the Middle Ages. In the 19th century, the region was known for its sweet wines, but in the 20th century, it began to focus on producing dry wines.CUSTOMER RATING
