Making a typically unattractive varietal, Pinot Blanc, attractive again takes some skills. This is said skills. Exotic, with a creamy mouthfeel, fresh and elegant with a lightly stewed tea characteristic.

Made with organically farmed Pinot Blanc grown on limestone soils, put through a short skin contact of 7 days and pressed lightly before transferring to old oak barrels for 6 months.

Serve chilled. This wine can be served with or without food, at Racine Wines Co., we'd recommend having it for apéro!

This is a light bodied natural white wine.

About Soma Vines

The SOMA VINES winemaking project was started by Antoine Lucchesi and Daisy Merrick.

Antoine is originally from Marseille. He studied oenology at the winemaking school in Alsace, France. After some years working for different wineries in Germany such as Sekthaus Griesel and Domaine Brand in France, he joined forces with SOMA to begin making his own range of low intervention wines.

Daisy is originally from Norwich, UK. After years of working in the hospitality industry, she went on to study the WSET Advanced, which led her to London and New York working for well known companies such as Majestic Wine and Chambers Street Wines. SOMA VINES was founded in Berlin in 2018 as an importing and distributing company. Eventually, the company further developed into a winemaking project with Antoine, and their first vintage was in 2020.

Since 2023, Antoine and Daisy have been picking grapes from their rented 4 hectares of vines located in and around Eckelsheim. In the cellar they work low intervention. Spontaneous fermentation, no fining, no filtration and no added sulfites.
