Piak!

“Piak!” is an incredibly rare and playful wine from Domaine Bobinet, located in the Saumur region (Loire Valley). It is a “Blanc de Noirs” (lit. “White from Blacks”) – a white wine made from 100% Cabernet Franc red grapes. The grapes are grown organically, and to keep the wine white, they are pressed very quickly and gently (direct pressing) so that the juice does not take on color from the skins. The wine is made naturally, unfiltered and without added sulfites.

The taste? The wine is dry, crisp, and full of energy. It is dominated by notes of citrus fruits (green lemon) and green apples, complemented by the subtle “greenness” characteristic of Cabernet Franc grapes (reminiscent of green peppers or grass) and a distinct minerality. This is a very refreshing and structured white wine.

How to serve? Serve well chilled (around 8–10 °C). This is the perfect aperitif that will surely surprise your guests. It goes well with goat cheese, tomato salad, or seafood.
