Schubert Pinot Noir Block B 2013
Wairarapa, North Island, New ZealandFrom the North Island's Wairarapa Valley, this pinot noir was destemmed and fermented into stainless for three weeks of maceration before moving to French barriques for 18 months (40 percent new). Bricking hue, this generous pinot leads with autumn forest and moss into sunripe cherry and black raspberry, mustard seed herbaciousness, fine pepper and cinnamon spicing, and a subtle tar-lined, fleshy palate. Fine, grainy tannins frame the whole to a warm (14.5 declared) smoky finish. This packed, Kiwi pinot will stand up to smoked pork ribs.Tasted: 13 January 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| QC | $50.00 | 750ml | SAQ |
