Pierre et Papa, White, IGP Pays d'Oc, France, 2025

Producer Profile

Inspired by the fanciful tales of Pierre Renard and his father, .......

Pierre et Papa is a compact range of high quality white, red and rosé wines made from grapes sourced throughout southern France. With packaging influenced by old advertising ephemera, Pierre et Papa’s nostalgic feel is very much in tune with the desire to seek out honest value.

Viticulture

From approximately 20 year old vines from vines planted at around 4,000 vines per ha on selected plots on clay and limestone soils in the area of Comté Tolosan around Toulouse in Gascony. This area benefits hugely from the influence of the Atlantic, giving freshness and acidity and making it perfect for white wine production.

Winemaking

The grapes are picked at night and undergo a six hours skin-contact extracting as much of as possible of the precious components. After a gentle pressing, the fermentation is carried out at cold temperature enhancing the subtle fruit flavors. Finally, a three months ageing on its fine lees.

Tasting Note

A fresh and aromatic wine resminiscent of lemon zest. Crisp, dry and lively with an abundance ofcitrus flavours as well as peach, honey, apple fruit on the palate. A refreshing and highly quaffable wine.

Food matching

Just simply delicious on its own as an apéritif, with seafood, BBQ or salads.
