We're back after an untended summer break. And today we have wine that is truly an on brand Witches brew. We're drinking the 2021 Poilu's Pinard from Florez Wines. This blend of 55% Picpoul and 45% Pinot Noir was maybe not an intentional blend. The Picpoul had a few aging problems, the Pinot Noir came in at a very high sugar level that would not ferment to dryness without the addition of water. But when blended together the two troubled wines on their own became a delicious light red. Not only do we love this story and honesty about winemaking, but the wine itself is a delicious chuggable red wine that is perfect for the summer. We talk a bit about Picpoul and where the grape is grown.
