A beautifully refreshing wine that’s unoaked, and lets the purity of its terroir shine through. Crisp and minerally, the flavors are of tangerines, grapefruits, honeysuckles and vanilla. Great with dried pecorino and figs drizzled with honey.——S.H.(11/15/2008)—— 88

Tangent’s been on a roll with dry white wines from the cool appellations of San Louis Obispo. Here’s a Pinot Blanc that shows real varietal character. It’s marked by peach, mango and white pepper flavors boosted by the high natural acidity of its appellation, and is frankly a luscious, absolutely dry wine.——S.H.(12/15/2007)—— 90

Unoaked Pinot Blancs are rare, but this refreshing wine argues the case. It’s high in mouth-cleansing acidity, with subtle peach, pineapple, lime zest and spicy flavors that finish long and rich.——S.H.(12/1/2006)—— 88
