December 23, 2023 - Pinot Noir blanc made to avoid the smoke taint on the skins in this vintage of wildfires that destroyed the winery’s Pinot vintage. Faintly copper pink color. Nose is lightly floral and under-ripe strawberry and minerally. Palate starts like a white wine but finishes with slightly tannic and bitter elements that are not unattractive. Crisp and zesty, orange blossom, light tangerine. Pleasant and unassuming.

It is definitely drinkable and provides some pleasure, and I respect trying to not just lose a whole vintage due to smoke and being creative; that said its not something I'd pay $75 for; it paired fairly well with trout fillets

May 13, 2023 - Served blind and perplexed everyone as to what this was. Indeed a touch copper pink in colour too to add to the mystery. Funny when disclosed as a white from Pinot Noir. Unfortunately the fascination ends there too. 89
