Pinot Blanc grape

A white mutation of Pinot Noir, widely grown in Alsace and northern Italy (as Pinot Bianco). Produces round, medium-bodied wines with apple, pear, and mild spice flavors.

A grape's character depends heavily on soil, climate, clones and winemaking. The notes below offer a general profile; an individual bottle remains the best way to discover a producer's house style.
