Blue Grouse Estate Pinot Noir 2017
Cowichan Valley, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, CanadaClassic Vancouver Island pinot noir. Delicate, pale, low alcohol (12 percent) by pinot standards, high acidity and freshness to beat the band. The fruit is decidedly red as in raspberries and pomegranate, with cedar, floral, spicy notes with light tannins. It's a pretty style, an intellectual style of pinot noir that will entice curious wine drinkers. It will work with any dish that is creamy or packing a bit of fat, be it salmon or a creamy, mushroom risotto. A stylish Vancouver Island pinot that makes a statement about a special place.Tasted: 29 August 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $37.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct |
