The earliest evidence of the cultivation of Pinot Blanc, which is a genetic mutation of Pinot Noir, dates back to Roman times. In Italy, it has been present since the 19th century. Its name probably derives from “small pine cone,” referring to the small size of the bunch and the compact arrangement of the grapes. It is a grape variety that expresses itself best in cold climates such as Alsace, or in German-speaking countries where it is known as Weissburgunder. In Italy, the most prestigious areas are Trentino-Alto Adige and Friuli Venezia Giulia.

Tasting notes
Pinot Blanc has a straw-yellow color with greenish reflections. By swirling the glass, we notice its good consistency. It is a complex, savory, mineral, elegant, and well-balanced wine, with great harmony between body and acidity. Bringing the glass to the nose, one is enveloped by herbaceous notes such as marjoram and thyme, fruity sensations like plum, peach, and pineapple, and hints of dried fruit such as hazelnut. Among the floral aromas, we perceive cornflower, broom, and acacia. It invites tasting, and we are struck by its good structure and its correspondence with the nose; a buttery, hazelnut note makes it even more intriguing. The finish is persistent, and it continues to linger pleasantly on the palate.
Pairings
Pinot Blanc, excellent as an aperitif, pairs well with light appetizers, soups, fish-based dishes, and not overly flavorful dishes.
