WineDiva's Review

Fresh, slick, racy.
Lunessence launched in 2014 after taking over a property in Summerland.
Their philosophy is a part of their name: Lunessence where Luna=Moon + Essence. The essence of the Moon. Moon as an important part of biodynamic farming that they are implementing. There are no pesticides or herbicides used in their vineyards with a focus on natural wines; they ideally use only native yeast, no, or minimal fining (only bentonite and time), and very light or no filtration at all.
The first Pinot Blanc I've tasted from them, this 2022 Pinot Blanc has 11% Semillon blended, was barrel fermented and aged five months in stainless steel on lees.
Notes of honeysuckle and creamy pears, fuzzy peach, mountain stream and pink grapefruit lead to a dry and racy palate. It's slick and precise with lovely a foundation.

Pairs Great with Gone Crackers Roasted Shallot & Herb

Recommended Pairings
Spicy Food, Cheese - Goat, GONE CRACKERS, Patio Sippers
