A lovely white Pinot Noir (93٪ Pinot Noir & 7% Pinot Blanc) that is quite aromatic with beautiful aromas of honeysuckle, melon, and hints of vanilla. Melon notes continue onto the palate along with a  honeycomb sweetness and slatey minerality into a surprisingly long finish.  Paired great with a creamy alfredo & spicy arugula pasta. My first time having a white Pinot Noir, and I must say I've definitely been missing out! [6/14/21]

A cool experiment. A little simple, but unique. Nutty, fatty mid palate. Acidic, sour on the sides. Crisp, summer fruit finish.

I'd rather have Hexamer's white Pinot Noir. It was okay, but a bit salty and tasted like they softened and fattened it up a too much with forced MLF. Over-priced and that label would scare off anyone in retail. Tastes like it should be $14 and looks like it should be $7 (seriously, that label is SO bad).Loses on both accounts to it's actual asking price of around $20. No thanks.

Sweet and crisp with notes of apple and lemon zest. I honestly would not have guessed this wine came from Pinot Noir grapes. Semi-Sweet with great acidity.

Apple, lemon curd, peach, lime zest and slate. Electric acidity and good minerality.

Grapefruit and muscadine on the nose. Crisp and low acidity when you taste. A nice lingering finish.

Nice powder, minerality on the nose. Light acidity. Almost creamy texture. Pear on the palate. Very tasty and quaint. Nice finish. I like it.
