Unsworth Vineyards Pinot Noir 2016

Cowichan Valley, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, CanadaImbued with the Island's coastal freshness, the 2016 pinot noir walks very well that fine line of pinot poise. Dark cherry, loganberry, rose petals, crushed stones are framed with bitter cocoa tannins, dusting the sides to a grippy finish. This comes from a nearby vineyard in North Cowichan, and three clones of pinot noir. Post fermentation in tank, this spends 15 months in barrel. I prefer and recommend this with a slight chill, accentuating the bright fruit and freshness.Tasted: 21 September 2018Tasted by: Prices:
