Villa des Croix Picpoul de Pinet
Villa des Croix Picpoul de Pinet is a fine wine. Beautiful ripe fruit, fine acidity and a slight saltiness fill the mouth. This wine has aromas of citrus combined with floral notes on the nose. Fresh, lively and thirst-quenching in the mouth.
Most Picpouls de Pinet are bottled in December - January, after fermentation and settling alone. However, it is at this point where Villa des Croix differs from the rest. The Villa des Croix is also aged on its lees for a minimum of 4 months to add structure, body and complexity, without compromising the expected fruity and mouthwatering character of a Picpoul de Pinet.
Wine - Food pairing
Delicious wine that goes well with oysters, fruits de mer, fish starters and mussels.
Villa des Croix Picpoul de Pinet

Villa des Croix
The terroir of the AOC Picpoul de Pinet terroir is located around the Bassin de Thau, a gigantic saltwater inland lake. The roots of the vines are here almost really in the Mediterranean, which you can certainly taste in the wine.
Because the vineyards are close to the coast, the soil here consists mainly of limestone that comes from the fossils of crustaceans and shellfish. This in combination with the exuberant sunshine gives beautiful ripe fruit with fine acidity and a slight saltiness.
The Bassin Thau is a natural breeding ground for delicious oysters and mussels, which immediately made a good friend at the table with Picpoul de Pinet.
