This clean and crisp style of wine displays delicate peach aromas with a hint of almonds. Smooth on the palate, it is balanced, with a creamy texture and a clean finish.
This wine is excellent with shellfish and smoked meat.
"Pale chamomile flavors last through this wine, a simple pinot blanc with some meaty white depths and quiet richness. Perfumed and peppery, it has shape and drive."

"Playful peach and pear aromas have a savory mineral edge to them. This wine drinks lean and clean, with those fruity notes present and enticing, but held very much in line by bright acidity and a texture that's surprisingly velvety for such a light-bodied sip. The finish is bright and fresh, with hints of white pepper. - LAYLA SCHLACK"

"Ripe, juicy notes of yellow pear fill the nose and carry onto the lively palate with ease. Lemon brightens the dry finish. - ANNE KREBIEHL MW"

"Only slight hints of ripe pear reach the nose. The palate offers more fruit and the textural element of pear peel. This is fresh clean and has a lovely mouthfeel. The finish is pristine."

"An almost neutral nose leads to a palate of subtle spice. There is freshness and balance with a clean-cut finish and some lasting savory notes."

"The 100% Pinot Blanc, the 2014 Pinot Blanc, shows crisp, light-bodied notes of white currant, a hint of peach and honey. It is fresh, dry and cleanly made. Like all of the others, this never sees anything but stainless steel. Drink it over the next year."
- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (March 2016), 87 pts - Excellent Wine Values for Under $25
"Very pale gold color; fresh, clean, breezy and bracing; lemon, lime and spiced pear, hints of cloves and mango; tremendous crisp, lively acidity and scintillating limestone element, with a touch of honeyed, baked peach for tenderness and nuances of dried herbs and flowers. Lovely heft and complexity. Excellent. Another Great Bargain."
