60% Pinot Blanc, 35% Pinot Gris, 5% Pinot Noir. Pale yellow green. Duh broke pomme/white orchard fruit nose. Noticeable sweetness. Improved with air. Excellent with drunken noodles, so send to like a bit of umami. Not super complex, but at least as good as many west coast white blends at the same price.

Nice floral tropical fruit thing but a touch of baby fat. Not so long.

Bouquet is citrusy like lemon peel. Some vanilla in the nose when warmer. Low acidity in flavor. Citrus fruit and pear flavors.

Michigan, who would have thought? Very drinkable white. Super balanced, dry, hints of orchard fruits and lemon.

2013 vintage. A very drinkable blend of Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and some Pinot Noir.
