Some Northern Michigan Wine Notes; 4/15/2021-4/20/2021 (Old Mission and Leelanau Peninsulas): Tasted at the winery. 100% Pinot Blanc from the IV vineyard planted in 1995 and harvested on October 6th at 20.3 brix. Purchased at the winery and was able to meet the vineyard owner/manager, Werner Kuehnis. Previously had the 2016 vintage (the 2017 vintage got 92 points from Decanter). A dry wine with a pale straw color. Very clean with nice biting acidity. Notes of Bosc pear and stones. 89 points.

Opened a bottle during happy hour last weekend. Just as good as good as the previous bottle. Sharp biting acidity with crisp white fruit. 89 points.
