Haywire Waters and Banks Pinot Noir 2014
Summerland Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaWaters & Banks vineyard is a steep sloping Summerland vineyard comprised of limestone and granite. This pinot noir was wild yeast and whole bunch fermented and spent four weeks on skins before resting in concrete eggs, a regime under the watchful eye of international "rock star" (aka soil geek) Pedro Parra. The result is perfumed herbal raspberry, smoked branch, dusty desert sage and a textured silk palate, one with finely grippy veins of tannin and a delicately bright acidity. Pure fruited and youthful, with evident sous bois underlay, this is ideal for your fire grilled wild fowl or dark meat turkey.
