Domaine Gaujal Picpoul De Pinet Puech de Claude 2023

The estate vineyard is planted in the AOP of Picpoul de Pinet, just three kilometres from the de Thau. This large lagoon influences the climate by contributing to cooler evenings and nights and depositing humidity onto the vine leaves, translating into the wine's vibrant freshness. The vines are converted to organic status; therefore, using sprays and chemicals is prohibited. All treatments are based on copper, sulphur and citrus essential oils, as permitted in organic viticulture. Weeding occurs mechanically, and covering grass is being trialled to help limit soil erosion and bring nitrogen into the soil. The fruit is harvested at night to preserve the freshness of the berries.
