Montignac Picpoul de Pinet

I recently shared this refreshing white wine in my column for the Southeast Valley Ledger and wanted to include on the blog as well for future reference!

This bottle of Montignac Picpoul de Pinet is a light, dry, fruity wine using the Picpoul (or Piquepoul) grape white wine grape variety out of southern France.  I paired the wine with a light pasta dish that was tossed with a lemon-garlic butter and they were excellent together.  As with any dry white wine, this one would be great with chicken or seafood as well.  For the price of $9.99 per bottle, you might as well buy a couple.
