Color:
Bright straw yellow, radiant and clear.
Nose:
Forgeurac's 2018 Pinot Blanc unabashedly flaunts fully ripe fruit, lush and unabashed, with an ethereally cool superstructure and vegetal herbal notes of chervil, anise and borage. Multi-layered and complex with a little bad boy attitude, the carafe and large glasses are ideal for domestication.
Mouth:
Contrary to all announcements, it is enormously disciplined on the palate. Taut and sinewy with a salty backbone, it doesn't do any fruity flips, but convinces as a structural experience. With good grip and finely woven acidity, it is coated with tart phenolic and delicate yeasty melt. Angenhem unverkitschter Weissburgunder with good pressure and vertical drinking train.
