Please The Palate Wine of the Week: Anarchist Wine Co 2020 Piquette

Summer by the pool calls for something easy-drinking and refreshing. Low-alcohol is an added bonus. Delicious is a must. That is why the Anarchist Wine Co 2020 Piquette is the Please The Palate wine of the week. Please The Palate Wine of the Week: Anarchist Wine Co 2020 Piquette Piquette is not technically wine because it is not made from fermented grapes. Water is added to the grape pomace (leftover skins, seeds, and stems), which would normally be thrown out, and the lingering sugars are fermented. Piquette is a historic drink that was first made by the ancient Greeks and Romans who made it because it was cheap and gave it to the slaves and field workers. Piquette is a traditional drink enjoyed by French and Italian vineyard workers due to its low alcohol. Prior to this year, I had never had a Piquette. Now Piquette is trending in the US and I have had a few. Anarchist Wine Co in Napa Valley recently released one and I thoroughly enjoyed drinking it! Please The Palate Wine of the Week: Anarchist Wine Co 2020 Piquette The Anarchist Wine Co 2020 Piquette is made from the pomace of Napa sourced Bordeaux varieties. It is a deep pink red color.
