WTN: 2013 Dirler-Cade Pinot Blanc

2013 Dirler-Cade Pinot Blanc Cuvée Vieilles Vignes - France, Alsace (7/22/2016)
Drank this over two nights and it remained consistent over the course of both evenings. There is a lot of fresh tree fruit, some richness and a moderately long finish. The alcohol is a bit of a bother on the finish though, so serve fairly well chilled. It's a very good Pinot Blanc, I just would prefer a lighter frame for this grape.

In this case pear and peach-crunchy ones-slightly underripe.
