Tesco, Finest Picpoul de Pinet, Languedoc-Roussillon, France 2024

A good expression of a grape variety that has become a victim of its own success, with far too many dilute and characterless examples on the shelves. This one has typicity and a decent intensity of flavour for the wallet-friendly price. Easy drinking, bright, lemony and zesty, with some green apple juiciness. Made by a co-operative that works sustainably.
