Best Oyster Wine Crowned
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Domaine Weinbach Pinot Blanc crowned BEST OYSTER WINE!
During the Crow’s Nest ‘Oyster & Clam Fest’ over Memorial Day weekend, Domiane Weinbach Pinot Blanc was voted BEST OYSTER Wine.
Over 60 Crow’s Nest guests who ordered a ‘Flight’ (4-2 ounce portions) of Oyster Wines with their raw oyster selections voted for their favorite oyster wine pairing. The 4 featured Oyster wines were , Domaine Weinbach, Pinot Blanc ‘06 Alsace France. - Pascal Jolivet Sancerre (Sauvignon Blanc), ’07 Loire Valley. France., Muscadet, Domaine de la Quilla, ’05 Loire France., Gordon Brothers Sauvignon Blanc,’06 Columbia Vly. WA.
In a narrow win the Alsatian Pinot Blanc from renowned producer Domaine Weinbach edged the Jolivet Sancerre. “Pinot Blanc is a relatively underappreciated grape related to other pinot varieties like pinot gris and pinot noir. In California it is often mistaken for muscadet and is similar in appearance to chardonnay” according to Crow’s Nest owner Steve Harner. “The Weinbach Pinot blanc is fresh, elegant and well balanced with traces of minerality and the perfect wine pairing with delicate fresh oysters which was confirmed by the vote of our guests” said Harner.
All ‘voters’ were eligible to win a $25 Crow’s Nest Gift Certificate. In a random drawing the winner was Stephen Bernstein.
