2005 Chateau D'Orschwihr Pinot Blanc Bollenberg Review

This is a pinot blanc from Alsace, France. I can't remember the last time I reviewed a white wine. I admit it, I have a bias towards white wines, but I've started drinking more whites lately and I was wrong to have a prejudice. This is an average off dry wine with hints of peach and apricot with a lemon nose. The acidity was average, alcohol level was average, the structure was average. Very light and easy to enjoy, this wine will not blow you away, but it's a good introduction to Alsace wines or for the novice wine drinker who likes dry whites. For about $15 you can do a lot better and a lot worse.

3 out 5 Corks.
