Foxtrot Pinot Noir Foxtrot Vineyard 2013

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBurgundian inspired is the calling card of Foxtrot, not to mention hundreds of other New World pinot producers. But few have vines on the magical Naramata Bench in the middle of the Okanagan Valley. The 2013 attack is much more vibrant than its colour might suggest, but then again it’s pinot, and we know colour is meaningless. Expect a lightly spiced, heavily flavoured, gently lifted pinot, reminiscent of black plums dusted in spice and red licorice. When you think it might warm your palate, it offers up both balance and elegance throughout its long, lingering finish. Think pheasant or perhaps a dish of truffle dusted pasta.Tasted: 27 October 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
