Pinot Blanc
A close relative to Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc is similar to its cousin in both flavour profile and where it is produced but is generally considered secondary in importance and popularity. Relatively mild in flavour, it is considered a good apértif wine—light, neutral, and versatile.
Flavor Descriptors
The flavours of Pinot Blanc tend to fall between those of Pinot Gris and Chardonnay, two popular varietals to whom it is related. Although not as intense aromatically as Pinot Gris, it typically offers green apple, melon, and pear fruit flavours, stony mineral notes, and hints of baking spice and almonds. While rarely sweet, it can take on a honeyed flavour profile and texture despite its bright acidity. It is generally not oaked.
