"We have been making Pinot Blanc from Bien Nacido since 1988. Newer and better Pinot Blanc was planted in 1995. These newer clones ripened well and produced wine with more structure than the earlier plantings. Blending these two grapes fashioned a wine with a generous fruitiness from the Pinot Gris contrasted with minerality from the Pinot Blanc. All the techniques used to make this wine are the same as the other great Au Bon Climat white wines. The wine was 100% barrel fermented and completed malo-lactic fermentation. No new wood was used in making this wine, but the wine was barrel aged, sur-lee for 6 months. The invigorating aromas of stone fruits and pineapple are evident at ?rst sni?/taste. The structure and minerality from the Pinot Blanc component is harder to ?nd but becomes more obvious after some time is spent with this wine. A lighter wine, it is great as an aperitif or with a salad for lunch."
