The pinot blanc has become one of the important grapes of Wijngoed De Kleine Schorre. In sunny Dreischor it is just warm enough for this grape to ripen properly, while retaining its freshness. It is a grape that produces delicious fruity and slightly spicy wines, and that manages to retain more acidity here than in Alsace, giving it a drier, more elegant and more stimulating character, with good acidity. Winemaker Johan van de Velde prefers to balance his 'Blanc', based on pinot blanc, by adding 10% of another grape. Auxerrois has been added to the 2021 version (approx. 10%). As a result, the Blanc, as it is called, is a wine that is beautifully balanced in character. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel to a wine with an elegant and stimulating character.
This Kleine Schorre Schouwen-Duiveland Blanc has a fresh, clear straw yellow color in the glass. In the nose notes of ripe pear, a hint of apricot, spring flowers, a hint of apple and citrus. On the palate, the small hoarse pinot blanc is juicy and ripe with fine acidity, lively and invigorating, beautifully balanced and is an excellent aperitif and good accompaniment to herring, smoked salmon, salads, light cheeses and, of course, Zeeland mussels.
GOOD FACT: You can also find this wine in the KLM World Business Class selection
