Tasting Notes and Food Pairing Suggestions

  • Honey roasted chicken
  • Root vegetable gratin with hazelnut crumbs
  • Rigatoni with roasted butternut squash, sage, and pine nuts

Grown on 50 year-old vines, this unique Pinot Blanc is pure Baklava in a glass: loads of honey and roasted nuts. Ripe fruit and a broad, creamy mouthfeel make for a complex, sophisticated wine with lots of depth.
