Our 2018 Pinot Blanc was an “Editor’s Choice” and awarded an excellent 92 points by Wine Enthusiast:
“Intense in juicy, succulent fruit, this opens with lovely botanical aromas and flavors of ripe lime, grapefruit and fresh apple. The flavors are layered and deep, lifted by refreshing minerality.” – Paul Gregutt
Our 2017 vintage of Pinot Blanc was also awarded 92 points and was ranked #5 in Wine Enthusiast Magazine’s Top 100 Wines of 2018! To reach 92 points for our subsequent vintage is a marker of our winemakers’ consistency with this cool-climate mineral sister to Pinot Gris.
