[SOLD-OUT] Coriole Piquepoul 2019

Try this local take on a traditionally French (and Spanish) variety. Bursting with lemon, blossom and oyster shell character. 

"2019 is our fifth release of Piquepoul!

TASTING NOTES
The nose is spritely and fresh showing fresh lemon, cypress and crushed shell. The palate is fine and long with fresh acidity providing drive and texture, flavours of citrus blossom and wet stone leaving the palate craving seafood, natural oysters especially!
VINEYARD NOTES
The 2019 vintage at Coriole had dry weather resulting in one of our smallest vintages ever. Yields were down particularly with Shiraz and Cabernet but despite that, the wines are showing impressive depth and balance. Our Mediterranean varieties have really shown their potential under these conditions with the Sangiovese vines producing solid yields, great balance, flavour and acidity. Our Nero, Montepulciano and Touriga ripened late, but once again with great balance and flavour. The Chenin Blanc and Piquepoul held up their acidity, producing mid-weight wines with beautiful fragrance and the Fiano is showing concentration of flavour, richness and texture.
WINEMAKER NOTES
We planted Australia’s first Piquepoul vineyard in 2010 after falling in love with this delightful southern French variety. The delicate texture and lively acidity make it a great partner to Australia’s fresh seafood and oysters."
