Blue Mountain Pinot Noir 2001
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA slightly reductive garlic scented nose blows off after a few minutes in the glass to reveal plenty of black cherry fruit, smoky oak and saddle leather. This is full flavoured pinot with spicy creamy vanilla flavours streaked with strawberry and cherry fruit flavour. A delicious mid-palate stalls in the finish but that's not unusual for young Blue Mountain pinot noir. Time in the bottle will smooth that out.Tasted: 13 January 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $22.90 | 750ml | Winery |
