Our packs are coming back this Friday April 16th at 12 noon! This pack will include 3 wines for a one time price. Two of the wines have earned rave reviews from the Wine Spectator and one of the wines has turned out with a few excellent notes on Cellar Tracker. Don't forget to log on at noon Eastern on Friday!
Please note, orders are processed on a first come basis. If you leave the wine in your cart for even a few minutes it might have already sold out as our stock quantity is removed when you submit the order in final, not when you add it to your cart!
You will get two emails from us with regards to your order. The first email from us only confirms that we received your order. The second email will confirm that we have enough wine to fill your order. Due to the high volume of sales there are times when the wine has sold out, but our system is still updating and shows it as available. We're sorry for any inconvenience and will do what we can to fill your order!
Thanks to your feedback we might bring back some of Cinderella Wine's popular previous offers. If a wine makes another appearance here, this newer offer will always be slightly higher than the original one. Offers that are on the site on Friday through Sunday will be shipped on Monday.

"Extraordinary notes of apricot, peach, honey-roasted almond, dried fruit and chopped herbs come together seamlessly to shape a very intense and gratifying wine. It is creamy, perfectly sweet and tangy on the taste buds and long-lasting. This is one of the best examples of Picolit you will ever taste. - M.L. (2008-06-24)" -94 points Wine Enthusiast |
Description:
WINE:
"Vibrant, lustrous golden yellow. The palate is sweet but never cloying, and very long, offering nuances of honey, candied fruit and ripe fruit. An outstanding accompaniment for foie gras and marbled or fat, soft cheeses. Best within ten years of the vintage date." -Winery
VINIFICATION:
"The grapes are manually harvested in mid-October. The Picolit grapes are harvested manually in the closing days of October. They are placed on rush mats for a month in well-ventilated rooms until their sugar concentration has reached the desired level. At this stage, they are selected by hand several times and any mold or damaged berries are eliminated. After pressing, the must ferments slowly in wooden barrels. Fermentation stops spontaneously with the arrival of the first winter cold, leaving a relatively high level of residual sugar (more than 100 g/l). A subsequent period of lees contact and bottling 18 months after the harvest also contribute to Picolit's ageing prospects. Maturation for 15 months in Allier oak barriques and for eight months in glass." -Winery
VINEYARDS:
"Our long-established vineyards and range of clones imbue our Picolit with its unique sensory profile. The vineyards are located 150 metres above sea level and are south, southeast-facing. Marl and sandstone are predominant in the soil of Eocene origin. The yield is 4 hecolitres by hectare." -Winery
