Tasting review

Eye: Golden yellow.

Nose: Delicate woody notes, subtle vanilla and fresh florals quickly develop into more intense plum, orange peel and acacia honey.

Palate: Slightly tart, showing an evident fruity freshness of green apples. Shortly the more mature notes appear, with liquorice fading into clear rancio.

Description

Estève Vieux Blanc Pineau

The Estève Vieux Blanc Pineau comprises Ugni Blanc wine blended with Petite Champagne eaux-de-vie, delivering an intense nose of bitter orange, plum and honey. Ample and powerful, it develops some generous notes of rancio towards the end, reflecting the time spent in oak casks; only Pineau that has been matured for at least five years can be labelled with the ‘Vieux’ classification.

Maison Estève is currently run by Philippe, a 7th generation Master Blender who operates 49 hectares of vineyards located in Petite Champagne, covering several municipalities of the Charente and Charente-Maritime regions. Alongside creating some outstanding Cognacs, he also prides himself on bottling well-aged Pineau des Charentes that can easily compete with the best Sauternes, as evidenced by the extensive list of awards this Vieux Blanc Pineau has received.

The Estève Vieux Blanc Pineau comes in a tall, straight bottle, a classic style that was originally popular in the 19th century. The antique-style label has been decorated with calligraphy writing.

How to Enjoy Estève Vieux Blanc Pineau

Serve this aged Pineau chilled, either as an aperitif or digestif. We say it’s the perfect accompaniment to blue cheese or foie gras.
