Tasting - Barth Rene Pinot Blanc

Name: Barth Rene
Variety: Pinot Blanc
Region: Alsace
Country: France
Year: 2012
Price: $9.95, Frontline $20 Sale

Winery Review: This is a crisp, fresh Pinot Blanc. It has a light touch of spice, although the wine is really dominated by tight green apples and fragrant acidity. It is ready to drink now.

My Review: This Pinot Blanc had strong hints of that famous Granny Smith apple (super sweet and fruity) with a little bit of pear and almost banana. It was acidic and had an extremely long after taste (which I'm not sure was as pleasant as the scent), but the wine was pretty good and aromatic.

With/without food: I tasted this on its own without food.
