Description

Coriole were the first to plant Piquepoul in Australia back in 2010, and in just over a decade it’s become one of their most distinctive and beloved wines. This southern French variety has slotted seamlessly into McLaren Vale’s Mediterranean climate, producing whites that are crisp, refreshing, and built for the table.

The 2025 release is as bright and zesty as ever – lemon, lime, and a whisper of nectarine, lifted by citrus blossom and a subtle saline edge. The palate is fine and linear, all about racy acidity and a mineral snap that begs for oysters or anything pulled straight from the sea.

Made simply in stainless steel to preserve its purity and delicate texture, this is Coriole at their best: thoughtful, forward-looking and deliciously drinkable. If you like your whites lean, fresh and full of energy, this is one to snap up.

a wonderful wine.

I tasted this wine as part of wine tasting function hosted by Jo Mackie - the focal point of the tasting was 'European varietals produced by Australian winemakers'. The 12 people in attendance all enjoyed the Coriole Piquepoul which featured amongst an array of superb wines. Would definitely recommend this wine.

2024 is our tenth release of Piquepoul - we were the first to grow Piquepoul in Australia.

The nose is spritely and fresh showing fresh lemon, cypress and white nectarine.

The palate is fine and long with fresh acidity providing drive and texture, flavours of citrus blossom, jasmine flower and wet stone leaving the palate craving seafood, natural oysters especially!

Coriole

Coriole is a McLaren Vale institution.

It's a winery with two sides. On one hand, they craft classic regional versions of Shiraz and Cabernet which are exemplary. On the other, they have been a trailblazer for emerging varieties (Italian varieties, in particular) in Australia.

Owner and winemaker, Mark Lloyd was one of the first in the country to experiment with Sangiovese and Fiano and has been hugely influential in bringing these varieties into the Australian wine zeitgeist.

Today, Mark's son Duncan has taken over the winemaking duties and his brother Peter as General Manager. The experimentation with emerging varieties continues under their guidance with Nero d'Avola, Negroamaro, and Piquepoul having come into the fold. Coriole never stands still. They are trailblazers who have had a huge impact on the changing face of modern Australian wine.

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

No, all prices are set at the full discounted dozen rate already.

Most wine retailers list at a single-bottle price and then discount 10–15% when you buy six or twelve. We've taken the opposite approach. Since the overwhelming majority of our orders are already 6 bottles or more, our list price is set for the case buyer from the start. There's no inflated single-bottle price to discount down from.

What that means for you:

- One price, same for everyone — no minimum to hit to unlock the best rate
- No mixed-six gymnastics to qualify for a discount
- Our single-bottle price is typically at or below a traditional retailer's by-the-dozen rate

Put simply: the box discount is already baked into the price.

**And if you find it cheaper elsewhere?** Let us know. If the same wine is available at a lower price at another retailer (including at their mixed-six or by-the-dozen rate) we're happy to match it.

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
