Linge Blanc De Noir – Betuws Wijndomein

The Linge Blanc de Noir from Betuws Wijndomein is a surprisingly fresh and accessible wine that will certainly surprise you. This wine comes from the Betuwe, a region that is increasingly making a name for itself in the Dutch wine world. What makes this wine so special is that it is made from the red Pinot Noir grape, but then as a white wine - a so-called "blanc de noir". This gives it a unique character, in which the fresh, fruity tones of white wine are combined with the depth of a red grape.

Character and aromas

The Linge Blanc de Noir has an inviting scent of ripe pears and a hint of citrus, with a subtle hint of flowers that makes it extra fresh. At the first sip you notice how beautifully balanced the wine is: a soft, light structure with a pleasant sparkle in the mouth. The taste has a fresh minerality, which reminds you of a light breeze on a sunny day, but also a nice round undertone of ripe fruit, such as apple and a hint of strawberry. This wine has enough depth to be interesting, but at the same time is very easy to drink. It is not a heavy, complex wine, but one that you enjoy taking every sip again.

Goes well with

This wine is a perfect companion for light dishes such as a fresh salad, grilled chicken or a fish dish. But it also comes into its own with a snack platter with different cheeses and tapas. Even with sushi or a light pasta with lemon and olive oil he can do it very well. In short, the Linge Blanc de Noir is versatile and goes well with both informal and more refined meals. And the great thing is: it can also just be an aperitif, nice and fresh and easy, for the perfect start of a cozy moment.
