Domaine de Fabrègues Picpoul de Pinet 2024 Languedoc, France
Domaine de Fabrègues Picpoul de Pinet 2024 is a crisp white wine from the Languedoc, made within the AOP Picpoul de Pinet. This style perfectly complements the Mediterranean coast around the Bassin de Thau, where white wines with citrus, green fruit, and mineral freshness pair wonderfully with fish and shellfish.

• Coastal Influence: The proximity of the Bassin de Thau and the Mediterranean Sea gives Picpoul de Pinet its fresh, maritime character. Especially on warm days, this location helps keep the wine vibrant and crisp.
• Wine Region: Picpoul de Pinet is exclusively intended for still white wines. It is this focus that makes the appellation recognizable: fresh, dry, fruity, and made for Mediterranean cuisine.
• Estate: Domaine de Fabrègues is located in the Languedoc and operates from a historic estate with 40 hectares of vineyards. The house style combines classic craftsmanship with a modern, accessible appeal.
Grapes
This wine revolves entirely around the grape that gives the appellation its name.

• Serving temperature: Serve this Picpoul de Pinet at 6–8 °C, so that the citrus, green fruit, and fresh structure remain beautifully crisp.

More information about Domaine de Fabrègues
Domaine de Fabrègues was founded in 2005 by Carine Pichot and Sébastien, on a site with a special history. The estate was once a 19th-century chapel and lay on a route for pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela. The name Fabrègues refers to forges, a place of passage and craft, which fits well with the way Carine Pichot makes her wines: true to the Languedoc, but with room for surprise, modernity, and a personal signature.
