Piquette is technically not wine, as it’s not made from fermented grapes; instead, it’s made by adding water to grape pomace (the leftover skins, seeds, and stems of the fruit) and fermenting what’s left of the sugars. Employing byproduct that would otherwise be thrown out. In this case, all varieties of the domaine. Think cherry kombucha, bitter green tea and fermented blackberry. Don't forget the smack of wildness that's lingers. At only 2.8% alcohol feel free to drink well chilled.
