2009 Thomas George Pinot Blanc, Saralee's Vineyard

Wow, this wine is fun, eh? Picked up right off the road to Jenner, this Pinot Blanc is easy to please. The grapes were grown right on Slusser Road just west of the Santa Rosa Airport in the Rusian River Valley and hung on the vine until all picked on October 7. Completely aged in stainless steel tanks, this yummy white is ready to enjoy right...now! Nice crisp apple flavors able to quench any thirst. Thick and viscous mouthfeel with pear and melon notes, accompanied with bright acidity makes this wine perfect for a spring afternoon with cheese, crackers and grapes. Only 190 cases were produced.
