A bright, sea-kissed white from southern France, the 2024 Domaine Font Mars Picpoul de Pinet is a crisp and zesty crowd-pleaser that shines with citrus, minerality, and Mediterranean charm.
Taste
Lively and aromatic, this Picpoul bursts with lemon zest, green apple, and white peach, accented by notes of fresh herbs, sea spray, and a hint of pineapple. On the palate, it’s brisk and mouthwatering, with zippy acidity, a touch of salinity, and a stony finish that makes each sip feel like a coastal breeze.
About the Winery/Winemaker
Domaine Font Mars is a family-run estate in the heart of Languedoc’s Picpoul de Pinet appellation. The de Clock family has farmed this land since 1864, continuing a winemaking tradition that dates back to the 17th century. Today, the estate is sustainably farmed and proudly focused on expressing the unique terroir of southern France’s Mediterranean coast.
Why We Love It
This is the kind of wine that transports you to a seaside lunch in the South of France. Brisk, clean, and full of energy, it’s a natural fit for oysters and grilled fish—but it’s also a delightful aperitif or pairing for fresh salads and herby pasta dishes. And at this price point, it’s a steal for everyday sipping.
