2023 Noris White Wine Blend
Aromas of pear, stone fruit and some tropical fruit. On the palate the wine exhibits depth and freshness with a noticeable salinity that makes it quite unique.
We are excited to release our second vintage of Pomum White Blend, a Bodeaux Blanc that is a blend of 51% Semillon and 49% Sauvignon Blanc.

Tasting notes
The wine exhibits primary aromas of pear, stone fruit and some tropical fruit. On the palate the wine exhibits depth and freshness with a noticeable salinity that makes it quite unique.
Production notes
This wine is exclusively sourced from our own Konnowac Estate Vineyard which is an older, nearly forgotten vineyard planted 35 years ago in the western half of the Yakima Valley.
Pomum purchased Konnowac in 2018 and we now make it the showcase of our entire brand.
Our Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc blocks were planted in 2008. These vines yield few clusters with small berries and inherently intense flavors.
It was fermented in a mixture of stainless steel and French oak barriques for nuance and complexity. It was aged on the fine lees for a total of 11 months.
Other notes
Pairing Suggestions - Arugula Salad with Lemon and Parmesan, White Fish Sushi with Avocado, Cod or Halibut with Beurre Blanc Sauce
Drinking Window - Drink now through 2026 to enjoy the fresh qualities of this wine, but will age beautiful until 2028.

James Suckling - 92 Pts
This is rich and flavorful with ripe stone fruit, beeswax and caramel on the nose. Medium to full-bodied with tense acidity, this has a dusty texture in the mouth, offering brightness and focus. Delicious, with a mineral finish. Drink now or hold.
