Hillside Pinot Noir 2012

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaYear three of Hillside's pinot program using Naramata fruit is looking good. The nose is a mix of mineral, rhubarb, strawberry flavours with flecks of savoury/smoky dried herbs. The attack is dry and fresh with more rhubarb, pepper, cherry tobacco flavours. The finish has a few grippy tannins tugging at your gums but they would disappear into a duck confit or salmon dish.Tasted: 05 August 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
