Very dry and would make an ideal aperitif wine before dinner served with shellfish such as oysters, clams and mussels. Has some lime and lemon zest aroma and doesn’t linger on the finish. Finishes clean like a French ‘ Muscadet” primarily grown and enjoyed where the Loire river in France and the Atlantic meet and where seafood is abundant. If allowed to linger on the mid-palate has a pleasant oily texture contributing to an interesting texture in the mouth. A French ‘ Muscadet” would be aged often ‘sur lies” to add some depth where this Pinot Blanc would not be thus aged. Would make a great cocktail wine, apéritifif wine, pre-dinner wine or a summer patio wine best enjoyed with some light food or appetizers. A light summer salad sprinkled with goat cheese, brie on crostini, or havarti with Ry-krisp crackers. Try and not serve too cool as the temperature will dampen its terrific texture. Serve just slightly chilled.
