Did you know the white wine grape Pinot Blanc is actually a mutation of the Pinot Noir variety? I didn't until this past weekend when I was told this nerdy wine fact while leading a yoga and fitness retreat. I've always loved a good Pinot Blanc and now I know why: they're made from something special.I also discovered my new favorite bottle, a 2008 Vineyards Reserve Pinot Blanc by St. Hubertus Estate Vineyard in the Okanakan (see photo on the left). Crisp, fruity, and aromatic.
And so continues my education into wine.
Now time to go do more research, practical studies of course.
What's your favorite wine and why?
