There are a lot of names on this wine. JeanJean is the producer, Ormarine is the brand (originally an independent producer, before the two merges), Carte Noire is the name of the wine and Picpoul de Pinet is the name of the AOC, which is is a subregion of the Languedoc regional appellation. It is made entirely from the Picpoul (a.k.a. Picquepoul) white grape.
After all that build-up, there's not a lot to say. It had a nice citrus note on the nose, but other than that it was a dry, crisp, light but undistinguished white.
