This is a very nice Pinot Blanc from Mendocino County in California. Showing citrus, lemons, green and yellow apples, light grapefruits, spices and light earth.
Dry on the palate with medium plus acidity. Crisp and refreshing.
Nicely balanced with a long, tangy finish.
Very easy to drink and good by itself or with food. I had it with Brie cheese by the lake.
Organic and vegan.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
89 points.
$14.

Nov 17th, 2020Light yellow in color.
Medium bodied with medium acidity and lighty creamy.
Dry on the palate with mild complexity and good balance.
Showing limes, grapefruits, lemons, citrus, green apples, spices and herbs.
Medium plus on the finish with tangy limes.
This is a very tasty and refreshing Pinot Blanc from Mendocino County.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, and a good pool wine too. Neither bitter nor tart, and better when not too cold.
Needed 30 minutes of airtime to balance itself out. A great value here.
I paired it with a Charcuterie board of cheeses, nuts and fresh berries.
13% alcohol by volume.
90 points.

Solid Pinot. Notes of honey. Very smooth and very drinkable. Nothing remarkable but a very reliable option.
