Bartier Bros. Piquette White, Okanagan Valley, BC
Readers rated this wine:
Located on the Black Sage in Oliver, Bartier Bros. make honest, classic wines of quality.
Piquette has historically been the winemaker and vineyard crew's wine. It's a simple wine made from a second pressing of grapes after the initial, intended wine. It has lower sugar and therefore alcohol (4.2%) and BB adds some carbonation to their version to keep it interesting and refreshing. It's also a way for a winery to bring in extra income from what would otherwise be deemed leftovers; crucial in times like these.
As I mention above this is a simple wine, no need to get into fancy talk about it. On both the rose and the white (both come in cans) the nose is more distinguished than the palate.
Notes of lemon peel, melon, pear and pomelo lead to a very light-bodied palate with mouthwatering acidity.
