Bench 1775 Pinot Noir 2014
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe style is ripe and juicy up front with warm black raspberry flecked with savoury dried herbs that coat the palate. Fresh and youthful, it’s leaning to red fruit and spice in the finish but with some drying, grippy tannins that hold back the finish. Needs food now. A little more silk is all this needs to sing.
