James Suckling
A very elegant, medium-bodied pinot blanc with remarkable depth for this basic category. Tons of crisp white apples with some fresh garden peas and herbs give this a lot of appeal and make it a very food-friendly wine. Long, generous yet clean finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now. Screw cap.
Approachable, aromatic and pleasantly plush on the palate, Pinot Blanc is a white grape variety most associated with the Alsace region of France. Although its heritage is Burgundian, today it is rarely found there and instead thrives throughout central Europe, namely Germany and Austria, where it is known as Weissburgunder and Alto Adige where it is called Pinot Bianco. Interestingly, Pinot Blanc was born out of a mutation of the pink-skinned Pinot Gris. Somm Secret—Chardonnay fans looking to try something new would benefit from giving Pinot Blanc a try.
