Castello Di Amorosa, Sonoma County (California) Pinot Bianco 2016

There isn’t much Pinot Blanc bottled as a stand alone variety domestically, and I’ll bet this is the only one that uses the Italian name on the label.  It’s a go to bottle when you’re looking for a refreshing white wine that’s a little softer than its aromatic counterparts.  This offering delivers mixed stone fruit and subtle spice, with just enough residual sugar to brighten the fruit and not tip into sweetness.  It finishes long and bright and will pair nicely with chicken dishes and mixed appetizers.
