Is Picpoul a good wine?

Is Picpoul like riesling?
In a nutshell, Piquepoul is kind of like Riesling, but with a tantalising ocean mist character about it. Heralding from southern France, this crisp refreshing white has claimed 'Official Oyster Wine' status in its home country, such is the degree to which oysters and Piquepoul are joined at the hip.
Is Picpoul similar to Sauvignon Blanc?
They're an excellent, affordable alternative to Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio. Picpoul isn't planted in many places outside of Southern France. That said, occasionally you'll find a home-grown example from Washington or California, which can provide you with a fun comparison exercise.
Why is Picpoul so popular?
In general, Picpoul is prized for making straightforward vivid and refreshing wines that on occasion can be 'steely', given the dominance of its acidity.
