The estate’s Prestige cuvée is crafted from a meticulous selection of old vines, harvested at night to preserve the fruit’s freshness. Careful and rigorous winemaking goes into this truly delightful wine, which reveals delicate notes of lychee and pear, evolving into aromas of white flowers... A summer delight waiting to be discovered!

About the estate:

Founded in 1922, L'Ormarine—formerly the Association of Pinet White Wine Producers—is a key player in promoting the Picpoul-de-Pinet appellation. Following mergers with the cellars of Villeveyrac (2009) and Cournonterral (2014), and then in 2017 with the cellars of Saint-Hippolyte-du-Fort and Vias, it now comprises 500 members and owns 2,500 hectares, 520 of which are dedicated solely to the Picpoul grape variety.
