The Wine

Tony was first introduced to the idea of making white wine from Pinot noir more than 15 years ago. The “hand of God” led to a chance meeting with a visiting Italian winemaker at the IPNC, which resulted in his first barrel-fermented white Pinot noir in 2014. His efforts have launched a trendy new direction for Pinot noir. Tony added Pretender (white Pinot noir) to Tendril's portfolio in 2013.

The 2018 Divine Intervention White Pinot Noir is an exquisite offering that both surprises and delights the senses. It is a truly memorable wine because you have not had anything quite like it before. The nose provides a swirl of red and white wine aromatics while the palate delivers seductively rich Pinot noir flavor and texture. You will experience flavors ranging from apricot and quince to salmonberry and cream. And it sails on and on...

This is the wine you want to serve to your know-it-all, wine geek friends that seemingly have tried everything. Serve at cellar temperature in a dark glass (so they can’t see the color) and chances are they won't even guess it’s a white wine! We are talking serious wine here. You will blow their minds and they will talk about it for years.

Let the games begin...
