Tantalus Blanc de Noir 2015
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom their 1985 single block of clone 93 pinot noir, this traditional method fizz pours a graceful, delicate light hue. The base wine was fermented and aged for six months in neutral oak, where it remained for two years on lees. This was disgorged in spring 2018, receiving a light dosage of 2015 Juveniles Pinot Noir before corking. Strawberry, cherry, biscotti is centered on a raspberry biscuit base, and seasoned with fine, persistent spicing to a kirsch-licked finish. There's a lovely chalky riffing texture throughout, adding to the lift. Lovely depth in this brut, and one that will age well in your cellar.Tasted: 31 May 2018Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $27.74 | 750ml | winery direct, private wine shops |
