Arterra Pinot Noir 2017

Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThe latest Arterra Pinot Noir builds on the juicy 2016, cherry fruit style with an extra bit of exotic five-spice you get in some top Burgundies. The mid-palate is a bit more rustic with intense spice and oak pushing in, suggesting it needs some time to settle. A portion of the fruit is air-dried appassimento-style although I’m unclear why that technique is required for something like pinot noir. Rich enough for grilled chicken or a favourite creamy cheese.Tasted: 03 April 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
