2021 Bryan Creek Pinot Blanc
2021 Bryan Creek Pinot Blanc
APRICOT | LEMONGRASS | JUICY
“I’m always excited to release the newest vintage of Pinot blanc but particularly so for the 2021 vintage. This wine is just so lovely. It rises up out of the glass with fragrant fresh apricot, lime zest, and crushed lemongrass notes. These aromas are showcased on the palate as well, rolling into a juicy, refreshing finish. Drink this with food or without, and congratulate yourself on your excellent decision making.”
