2024 J. Lohr

Pinot Blanc

F&G Vineyard

The 2024 F&G Vineyard Pinot Blanc highlights aromas of white floral, yellow rose, quince, crushed rock, and pear. These aromas are complemented on the palate by complex flavors of ripe melon, Meyer lemon, and almond with creamy texture and a long finish from fermentation and aging in the large vessels.

Arroyo Seco AVA

Vineyard

The grapes for this limited release were grown in the sand-laden, cobblestone soils of the windy Arroyo Seco AVA in Monterey. These rugged soils keep yields in check and produce fruit with varietal intensity, minerality, and exceptional weight. The long cool growing season at our sustainably farmed joint venture F&G Vineyard in the Arroyo Seco appellation ensures that texture develops alongside bright acidity.

Vintage

The 2024 growing season was characterized by a very cool early spring in the Arroyo Seco. Fortunately, late spring and summer brought daytime highs in the 80s to help fully ripen the grapes. We harvested this vineyard in two picks in early October - the first to enhance the bright acidity that is the Alsatian side of this grape and the second to provide riper, melon flavors and rich texture to extend the finish.
