Country: US / Estate Grown
Variety: Pinot Blanc Oregon
Winery: WillaKenzie Estate / Willamette Valley
A definitive, whitepepper spice note runs through many, if not most Oregon Pinot Blancs. It’s a positive marker, and this wine is a fine example. Winemaker Thibaud Mandet unhesitatingly calls this his favorite wine. There are lovely aromatics, a mouth-teasing mix of citrus and green apple fruit, and a wash of minerality on the finish.
