VINEYARD NOTES

Year after year, the Durell Vineyard Pinot Blanc has its number one fan girl, our Co-Founder and General Manager, Prema Behan. A white Burgundian cousin of pinot noir, our pinot blanc is known for its bright, refreshing characteristics. This unique varietal is pure elegance, and this vintage is no different.

VINTAGE NOTES

The 2021 vintage began with a very dry winter making early irrigation in the vineyards necessary to counteract the lack of rain. With cooler weather around budbreak and flowering, we saw a fair amount of fluctuation in the timing and development of the grapes. This led to highly variable yields at harvest, which kept our winegrowing team on their toes. Harvest got underway on the last day of August and continued throughout September at a steady, methodical pace. Overall, the fruit was quite enticing, with medium to full body and particularly impressive tannin structures on the Pinots

TASTING NOTES

the 2021 vintage will tickle your palate with fresh stone fruit and key lime, paired with just a touch of saltiness to create an enduring mouthwatering experience, a wine that accompanies nearly any festivity and is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
