Robert Sinskey Pinot Blanc 2018

Elegant and harmonious pinot blanc, boasting a vibrant and lean flavor profile, with subtle hints of citrusy grapefruit, refreshing green apple, and a touch of sweetness, paired by a balanced and enjoyable finish, making it an excellent pairing with a variety of dishes, accompanied by grilled chicken, pan-seared gnocchi, and a medley of fresh ramps.

Truly superb Pinot Blanc from the esteemed winery of Robert Sinskey, highlighting the nuances of biodynamic winemaking. The glass corked bottles, with only 375 halves available, ensure a limited supply, making each bottle a rare find. The wine's color is a beautiful pale golden hue, with undertones of ripe citrus fruits such as lemon, lime, and pear, as well as a hint of sweet white melon. The texture is shaped by a long, comforting finish, with seamless brightness and a pleasant, velvety texture. As the wine ages, light flavors of toffee emerge, adding density and complexity to the ultimately experience. even as the price may be steep, the remarkable quality and rarity of this wine make it well worth the investment. A true gem for connoisseurs.

Comforting surprise encounter with a unified blend of flavors, with a noticeable mineral component that provides a nice contrast to the oxidized aroma. The tension between the two elements is well-balanced, making for a smooth dining experience. The company was excellent, with a delightful meal featuring bronzino, truffle pasta, and a fresh salad. The evening was filled with laughter and good company, all set against the backdrop of Silverlake with Andrea and a charming paca bear.
