2001 Alois Lageder Pinot Blanc

[JohnG]

My first pass at a Pinot Blanc. Pale straw in color, with an ample blend of fruit (pineapple, pear, green apple)on the nose. It was dry, with good fruit and a bit of honey in the mouth, and medium-bodied. It had a nice acidic zip to it, as well.

I don't know how representative this wine is of Pinot Blanc in general, but I thought that it found a nice midpoint between light, crisp whites and more full-bodied, fleshy whites. Bought at $13.99.
