Nichol Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis young pinot noir was planted in 2007 at the top part of Nichol's Naramata Village estate vineyard, around 700m. Sasparilla, ripe raspberry, perfumed cherry, sultry black plum wraps around a juicy core, striated with tight spicing, perfumed with plum blossom, and gripped with fine, firm, raspberry seed tannins. The end finishes with a flush of savoury nutmeg warmth. Very much NZ styled, somehow.Tasted: 22 February 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $30.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
