Details
Picpoul is a popular variety in the south of France, where the sun is shining and the seafood plentiful. The 'Sakura' Picpoul is delightful with a virtual market of orchard fruit, apples, pears and nectarines all shining through in this wine. It is easy-drinking with moderate acidity, making this wine a crowd pleaser.

Windowrie is a pioneering western NSW winery that has cleverly turned their whole world around to become a fully organic and minimal intervention producer with a whole swag of clever wines in their portfolio. Still run by the forward-thinking O'Dea family, this estate has the ultimate desire to 'live in a chemical-free, sustainable environment that reflect where we are and what we believe in. While Canowindra is known as the ballooning capital of Australia, you there's more than hot air here. We like the colourful range of classy wines under the 'Sakura' range and the 'Pig in the House' range is a delightful expression of wines made under the hands-off banner.

Pairing guide
We love a bottle of Picpoul - not only is it a beautifully refreshing white wine variety, it’s also one of the best for pairing with some of our favourite dishes. This one from Windowrie is going to be fantastic with simple seafood recipes, especially those featuring prawns, scallops or freshly-shucked oysters. Flaky white fish creations, lemon risotto, barbecued chicken breast salads and even spicy Thai or Malay curries will work very well indeed. Give it a try and see for yourself!
