Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The wine is star bright with greenish-yellow glints, giving off aromatics of citrus rind and pineapple and flavors of preserved lemons and green papaya.

A stand-alone variety it is particularly worthy of seafood matches possessing a fresh mineral tinged tropical complexity.

    COMMENTARY: The 2018 Adelaida Picpoul Blanc takes a page from the southern French countryside. TASTING NOTES: This active, fresh, and charming. Its aromas and flavors of mineral notes and bright fruit should pair well with a fresh green salad accented with grilled peach slices and a squeeze of fresh lemon. (Tasted: August 19, 2019, San Francisco, CA)

Adelaida Vineyards & Winery is located in Paso Robles and is the premier winery in the Adelaida District. Founded in 1981, Adelaida Vineyards is built on a vision of excellence and their goal is to produce the most distinct and compelling wines from their estate vineyards. The estate vineyards encompass 180 acres that span across distinct areas of mountainous terrain characterized by chalk-rock limestone soils, afternoon blasts of cool coastal air, and a daily 40 to 50 degree temperature swing. These unique and varied locations led to specifically designated grape varietals. By taking advantage of the unique soil, elevation, and microclimates on the property, Adelaida maximizes fruit quality. Through meticulous attention to detail in the vineyards, Adelaida is able to express the unique and diverse character of their soil and climate.

Picpoul remains one of the few wines in France named for the grape more than the place; Picpoul de Pinet refers to the white wines made exclusively from the grape called Piquepoul Blanc in the Languedoc communes of Pinet, Mèze, Florensac, Castelnau-de-Guers, Montagnac and Pomérols. Confusingly, the spelling, Piquepoul, can be used for the variety in all other appellations except for those named above. The grape is ubiquitous throughout the Languedoc. Somm Secret—Pomérols is a commune in the Languedoc-Rousillon region in the south of France and has nothing to do with the Bordeaux village of virtually the same name, Pomerol.
