I get a lot of my content from wine tastings that of course in todays COVID times are suspended. As an example I would get 30+ wines tasted in an evening. Even if I only wrote up the stars of the night I would get 5-10 wines out of an event. I’m sure you’ve noticed the update rate has slowed. Sorry about that. I will continue to do my best to share as much as I can …
Pale in color with a nice minerally, citrus not. On the mid palate the wine displays some nice citrus notes that match the nose, lime/lemon and the like. With food it’s milder, without food a little more descript. I served it with seafood fettucine alfredo and it was a little hard pressed to rise above it. On it’s own it’s got some nice mouth grip where the nice acidity dances on the tongue. I would give it an 88-. For the price not a bad deal, just pair it with something not quite as lively. Nice and dry. from the LCBO web site: Check stock

The Calvet Pinot Blanc 2018 is fermented in stainless steel, preserving the delicate floral and fruit tones. It shows lifted citrus notes, with excellent freshness and a fine minerality. It’s a good food wine that will be great with fish or salads but will also shine as a sipper paired with soft cheeses. (Vintages panel, Nov. 2019)
