Howling Bluff Pinot Noir Summa Quies 2012

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaEighteen months in French oak, followed by a further 11 months in bottle ensured that the all the various pinot blocks and clones at Summa Quies Vineyard were able to meet and mingle. They've emerged with fresh cherry, black raspberry, cinnamon bark and forest notes across a medium bodied, rhubarb toned palate. Tannins are fine and acidity is bright. Cracked spices, cedar and fall forest close out the tart finish, and call for roasted morels and polenta or wheat berries.Tasted: 05 June 2015Tasted by: Prices:
