Foxtrot Pinot Noir Foxtrot Vineyard 2011

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaVintage 2011 was a cool one, helping with the acidity, but can leave some wines lacking body. It’s not the case with this fully mature pinot that is showing some lifted/volatile notes, leading to earthy, forest floor, dark red fruit. It was aged 18 months in oak, which isn’t a factor at this point. There is harmony here, but this wine needs drinking. Surprisingly big for the year and as I say, showing some porty notes. Best with a rich mushroom pork dish.Tasted: 25 June 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
