The nose of this Pinot Blanc gives energetic aromas of stone fruit and white flowers, while the palate shows nectarine, lemon, juicy pear and classic plush, waxy texture that brings some weight and seriousness.

Dark on the nose with more mocha and a bit of heat. The palate is a bit subdued and I struggled to find the fruit. Sure, everything is there (the fruit showed up on the mid palate), but overall, this is lacking a bit of “wow”, for sure.

Medium color but still translucent with a bit of cranberry and subtle cherry. Good fruit and some nice acidity, fantastic balance in that regard, but the finish is a bit short despite the noticeable tannins.

Darker with a more rustic feel, maybe a little hot. The palate is fine, even close to excellent, but lacking a “wow” factor. Very Good. 89 Points.
