2020 Jean Ginglinger Pinot Blanc Glou-Glou

WINEMAKER: Jean-François Ginglinger
REGION: Alsace, FR
VARIETAL: Pinot Blanc
VITICULTURE: Certified Biodynamic

"This wine is a pure, tense, energetic Pinot Blanc that is a great expression of this grape variety which is widely planted in the Alsace as well as in Champagne, Lorraine and Burgundy where it is valued for the minerality and acidity that it provides. This Pinot Blanc is very food friendly and can be matched to a wide variety of dishes. Jean has added the words Glou-Glou this year as he thinks it is particularly drinkable!" - Living Wines
