Lloyd Brothers Picpoul Prosecco 2023 

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.
