Skaha Vineyard Pinot Blanc 2016

Skaha Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPinot blanc is a grape very well suited to the Okanagan, and wines like this show why. Pure pear streams along the stony, salty palate, with fine sage dust spicing up the sides. The vineyard is up above Skaha Lake on steep shale slopes with fossilzed sandstone. Bright and lively in the mouth, though lined with a full layer of lees and a fuller body (13.7 percent alcohol). Balance is everything. Well done.Tasted: 07 November 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
