Gold Medal at the 2009 Paris General Agricultural Competition
The Duc de Morny Picpoul de Pinet vintage fully benefits from the climatic advantages of the nearby Mediterranean. A delicious, characterful cuvée, very fruity, with beautiful intensity and notes of citrus and exotic fruits, offering a lovely balance, roundness, and the acidity typical of the Picpoul grape variety. A wine that will express its full flavor when paired with seafood and shellfish... Enjoy it right away!

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.
