WINEMAKING NOTES
“Petit Blanc is a wine that is lithe but not light. It is fun and free of heavy-handed winemaking. No new oak, no malolactic fermentation, no battonage, no-nonsense. A wine that hits way above its weight and delivers a strong quality/price ratio. A wine that you can readily be opened on a weeknight and pair with a variety of cuisine without putting a dent in your wallet.
The 2022 vintage of this unique blend is Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Gris along with a few other aromatic varieties like Marsanne and Roussanne in the blend making the whole greater than the sum of its parts. Green Citrus fruit, gooseberries, currants and a touch of tropical fruits greet you on the nose. While orchard fruits are tasted on the mid-palate, the finish and the core of this wine has citrus, stone fruit and tropical fruits all wrapped perfectly in balance together. 2022 was a cooler growing season and as such the resulting wine is lower in alcohol, even crisper than usual, with excellent focus and precision.
