Arrowood Pinot Blanc Saralees's Vineyard 2000

Russian River, Sonoma County, California, United StatesUS pinot blanc is sometimes confused with the grape known as melon de Bourgogne but at Saralees's Vineyard in the Russian River Valley the pinot blanc is a certified true clone. The `01 marks the end of a decade of pinot blanc production at Arrowood and it's hard not to like the delicious preserved peach fruit-driven wine, with tropical fruit aromas and flavours. The finish is smooth and streaked with vanilla and floral notes.Tasted: 27 May 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
