Our first Pineau des Charentes under our own label! In collaboration with the house Daniel Bouju, which is very close to our heart.
This 19-year-old pineau, a très vieux, has a perfect balance between acidity & sweetness for us. We don't like that sticky, over-sweetened Pineau. This pineau has aromas of sultana, honey, raisins, gingerbread and toasted bread. This in combination with the acidity of a good Riesling wine. Makes this delicious drinkable in both winter and summer, at the fireplace or on a sunny terrace.
