Hillside Pinot Noir 2014

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe 2014 marks year five of Hillside's Naramata-only pinot fruit and the style is evolving naturally to reflect the sub-region, now on the precipice of gaining its own official sub DVA status. The style is vibrant and juicy with raspberry, wild strawberry, and a hint of savoury, tomato leaf throughout the spicy finish. The texture is pinot silky, the tannins minimal and the minerality high. The fat from a piece of grilled salmon would be the perfect match here.Tasted: 27 June 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
