Pinot Blanc

2026 Protero Pinot Blanc

"If a Riesling and an unoaked Chardonnay had a love child, it would be Pinot Blanc — lighter in style, with a fresh, zesty character all its own." SCP

Pinot Blanc is the sister variety to Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris/Grigio. It is one of the most widely planted varieties in Alsace, where it's produced by houses such as Hugel. It's also grown in Italy in the regions of Alto Adige and Friuli, known there as Pinot Bianco, and has its largest plantings in Germany.

Pinot Blanc is thought to be an offspring or mutation of Pinot Gris. Grape vines mutate quite easily, which is why there are so many varieties in the world. It's a bit tricky to get your head around, but black/red grapes can exist on the same bunch as grey and white berries — if the seed of a white berry falls to the ground and grows a vine, you have a new variety.

Flavour

Lime leaf, lemon zest, green apple & pear, white flowers and hints of fragrant cedar wood.

Texture

Fresh, zesty light to medium bodied wine with a dry soft finish and moderate balanced acidity.

Goes With

Enjoyed as an aperitif. It a versatile wine that would pair with any seafood, white meats, soft cheese and any creamy salad like a Caesar. I like it best with seafood especially richer types of seafood like shellfish. A Crab Linguine would be perfect or if you rich enough a lobster.
