I'm currently enjoying a bottle of 2016 Herrenweg Pinot Blanc by Francois Baur. I go to the Harlem Wine Gallery every Friday to discover something new, and I'm so excited! 😱 Usually, I prefer red or sweet wines like Lambrusco or Riesling, which are super fun and sparkly, but not exactly versatile. I'd previously never heard of a Pinot Blanc, but I'm very pleased with this wine! It's significantly dryer than I'm used to, but not as acidic as I'd expect a white wine to be. It's not too serious. As a beginner wine taster, I like flavors I can identify easily. They make the most sense to me. The gentleman helping me shop called it a "full-bodied" white wine, which I'd never heard of before! Now, I understand. It's definitely not sweet, but as I enjoy it with roasted mushrooms, it hits the top of my palate with a brightness I hadn't tasted before. It's creamy mid-mouth, and fortunately doesn't taste of oak (my least favorite flavor component). The smell is grassy and moderately herbaceous/botanical, so I'm consistently surprised when the sip is light and bright and only slightly peppery. In my opinion, it tastes much sweeter than it smells, though it is by far not a sweet wine. I can't wait to try this with cheese. It could definitely stand up to creamy sharp flavors, or even funky ones! I look forward to experimenting this weekend. ...what a great educational video to enjoy while I explore a new region from the comfort of my tiny flat! 😊

Duct_Tape Heart Wow, I think this is the most amazingly concise and descriptive comment I have ever read, especially on KZbin. If you are not already in the business of writing, you are depriving people of your unique and exquisite gift!!!

Currently enjoying a 2010 gentil "hugel" as I watch this... amazing video I’ve watched it about 10 times and every time I realize I haven’t learned enough.
