2021 Pinot Noir Blanc Bliss

The 2021 Utopia White Pinot Noir “Bliss” is a distinctive Blanc de Noir crafted from estate-grown Pinot Noir grapes in Oregon's acclaimed Ribbon Ridge AVA. Gently whole-cluster pressed with minimal skin contact, this elegant white wine showcases aromas of white peach, pear, Meyer lemon, and citrus blossom. The palate reveals layers of crisp orchard fruit, subtle floral notes, and refreshing minerality balanced by vibrant acidity and a silky texture. Aged on fine lees to enhance complexity and mouthfeel, Bliss offers a unique expression of Pinot Noir that is both sophisticated and remarkably food-friendly. Perfect for seafood, fresh cheeses, and Pacific Northwest cuisine, this limited-production wine captures the freshness, elegance, and terroir-driven character that define Utopia Estate wines.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Blanc “Bliss” is cooly refreshing with aromas of peach, pear and primrose which carry through on the palate along with creamy melon and citrus flavors. Produced from a block of Pommard on our Estate Vineyard it is creamy with bright acidity and polished tannins. It is the perfect summer wine and will pair nicely with lighter dishes such as grilled shrimp, chicken or fish.

The refreshing acidity and delicate orchard fruit flavors of Bliss beautifully complement fresh seafood, creamy cheeses, and herb-driven cuisine. Its subtle texture from lees aging allows it to pair with richer dishes such as crab, scallops, and roast chicken, while its bright citrus and mineral notes make it a natural partner for oysters, sushi, and other coastal fare. For a quintessential Pacific Northwest pairing, enjoy Bliss alongside fresh Dungeness crab, Cedar-planked salmon, or a creamy goat cheese and pear salad.
