Upper Bench Pinot Noir 2012

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaCool pinot nose with spicy, red fruits and tomato leaf notes in the back end. The attack is soft the texture relatively silky but with resiny, earthy cherry/ blueberry fruit. The finish is dry with some leathery resin sage and vanilla notes. A solid start but lacks the finesse and electricity of big time pinot. A work in progress.Tasted: 28 July 2014Tasted by: Prices:
