Not a wine
I undid the category change from Category:French liqueurs to Category:French wines because Pineau isn't a wine: its manufacture doesn't involve fermentation. Just fresh must blended with cognac.
The category "liqueurs" seems OK to me, because liqueurs are normally made by blending eau-de-vie with flavourings which may include fruit juices, and that covers Pineau. However, it's certainly not a typical liqueur, and I'm not swearing that "liqueurs" is the mot juste! Andrew Dalby09:35, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
History
The date 1589 is widely circulated on the Internet (I see it frequently used on food and drink blogs and on the web pages of cognac manufacturers), but I am having difficulty finding what I would consider an authoritative reference. The Behrendts simply date the origin of pineau to the sixteenth century, which is probably safer.
