TN: 2018 Gisselbrecht Pinot Blanc Tradition, Alsace.
Good nat cork, 12% alc, $22 Cdn
Medium straw color, nose not to aromatic initially but as it opens green apple, lemon/lime, more perfumed as it opened after an hour. But really not all that enticing I thought.
Initial entry thought was dry, light to medium bodied. Took time to open up with quince, apple but so-so acidity. "No citrus tones to speak of" from across the patio. More white stonefruit, subtle complexity on day 2. Also noted some sweetness and better/very good acidity as we drained the bottle!
Food was pork scallopini in a mushroom sauce.
Interested to get some forumite opinions!
