Laughing Stock Vineyards Pinot Noir +08/10 2017

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis ambitious pinot noir starts quite assertively and powerfully with spiced cherry, dark plum and a generous amount of oak defining the aromas. The flavours are expansive with plenty of sweet red fruit, cocoa powder, nut husk and vanilla. Substantial tannins for pinot noir, plumping up the body, while warm alcohol spices up an emphatic finish of bold fruit and fine French oak. Two Naramata sites provide the fruit, well-ripened from a pretty warm vintage. Typical of BC pinot, brisk acids keep this wine nice and bright and food-welcoming.Tasted: 02 August 2019Tasted by: Prices:
