Pinot Blanc(ish)

Wine is so confusing! I love a good Pinot Blanc, or Pinot Bianco. But what do I love when it's not necessarily a Pinot Blanc? Let me explain. Alsace is unique in France, having created its appellation system by varietal instead of region. Except when ...

Pairing Riesling

I find it funny that Riesling is always hailed as one of the greatest (if the not the greatest) white wine varieties and yet so few people have it in their cellars or use it at the dinner table. Honestly, it’s a shame. The fact is, Riesling is one of t...

Pinot Blanc, It Ain’t all Gris.

We’re all familiar with Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, two varieties of wine that get more than their fair share of attention, but what about Pinot Blanc? In theory, though this often tends not to be the case, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris are closely related...

Lovely full-bodied dry Riesling. Fruit-forward and just a hint sweeter than some Alsace Rieslings (more fruit/sugar than Trimbach for sure). Deep straw yellow color, underripe pear tones with a grapefruit finish.

The nose was highly expressive with peach, Lemon curd, almond skins, yellow flowers and sweet cream. On the palate, it was soft and rich yet juicy with flavors of apricot, citrus and orange rind. The finish was remarkably long with citrus-tinged inne...

    Ernest Preiss Alsace Riesling Blanc 2009

    Snoothrank:

    This is a decent Riesling in die Mode des Elasaß with some bracing apple and petrol on the nose. The entry is still quite acidic and austere needing perhaps a touch of honey to satisfy the masses. Decent value in a good food wine for lighter dishes and seafood. Read More

  • May 2012

    As I mentioned when I introduced myself as part of Snooth's Mentor Program, I'm a wine educator. I teach wine at a culinary school, and I instruct classes at local shops around my area in the Triangle in North Carolina. It keeps me on my toes, for sure - no matter how many times I've taught a concept or tasted a wine, something new comes up. Mos... Read More

    Paul Blanck Riesling 2003

    Snoothrank:

    Holding up well under screw cap in April 2011. Colour golden hue with obvious bottle development. On the nose it shows complex, lifted characters of mineral/citrus, ripe golden peach and a hint of honey. On the palate there is a lovely balance between the acidity, fruit and an aged honeycombe roundness - the acidity is all still there with a cle... Read More
