2023 Picpoul Prosecco 6pk
Adelaide Hills
This sparkling wine is made from Picpoul and Prosecco grapes grown on the Lloyd Brothers estate vineyard in the cool climate Adelaide Hills. Combining the brightness of the Picpoul, with the lusciousness of the Prosecco has created this unique sparkling wine. Displaying lovely flavours of green apples and honeydew melon, with a gorgeous aroma of lemon myrtle and honeysuckle. We believe this is the first Sparkling Picpoul Prosecco created. Best enjoyed well chilled.
90 points James Suckling "So fun! Two unorthodox bedfellows that work really well. Picpoul’s tensile salinity infuses prosecco’s frothy, more acid tendencies with perk, a feel of mouthwatering dryness, poise and effortless, mindless drinkability. Sometimes this is the best kind! On the lighter side of mid-weight, vibrant and thirst-slaking. Take the cover of the pool! Drink now" – Ned Goodwin MW
91 points The Wine Pilot - "Picpoul is a quirky grape variety originating from the south of France, where it is made into crisp, refreshing white wines. Here it is partnered with Prosecco grapes, from the cool climate of the Adelaide Hills, where it adds an extra layer of freshness and complexity. There are aromas of spring blossoms, tangy green apple, nashi pear, and lemon zest, with a hint of fig leaf and a refreshing sea breeze minerality. Vibrantly bubbly with tangy green apple acidity makes for a beautifully dry and very moreish drink. A hint of pithy texture invites fresh seafood to the table. It’s an unusual blend, perhaps the only Picpoul Prosecco in the world, and for my part, I’m hoping it becomes a trend." Nicole Bilson
