Thornhaven Pinot Noir Barrel Reserve 2005

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA nice improvement over last year although it still has some way to go to develop a true pinot profile. Sweet oak and smoke lend an attractive upfront character to this red but the fruit component is low. More smoky oak and toast mark its smooth dusty oaky finish.Tasted: 08 October 2006Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
