$30(free s/h) Not wine and not liqueur. Pineau is actually a "mistake"! At one time in the Cognac region someone used the wrong barrel to ferment the new wine. The barrel had some Cognac left in it, which did not allow the juice to ferment. However the mixture of fresh grape must and Cognac became famous as a sweet aperitif we know as Pineau des Charentes. Usually seen as white liquor, Landreau produced this rare red Pineau from top quality Merlot and Cabernet grapes that were aged in oak for 3 years yielding a soft and round liquor that makes this French tradition a perfect starter to your holiday parties.
