16/20

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFoxly is the second label of Naramata Bench's Foxtrot Vineyards, well known for its production of Burgundian style chardonnay and pinot noir. The rosé is an 80/20 mix of pinot gris and pinot noir, leading a pale orange-pink colour to a fresh orchard fruit nose. The palate is dry and well structured with spicy cherry and tart red fruit, suggesting this is more than a sipper, but a pink that can support light lunches or appetizers.

Foxly Rosé 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaF foxly is the 2nd label of Foxtrot Vineyard, released in the spring of 2020, and meant to be a more approachable, drink-now style. This deeper peach hued rosé blends 80% pinot gris with 20% pinot noir saignée, resulting in a medium+ bodied red with spiced cherry, raspberry, and a pop of red currant tartness across a broad pear base. This finishes briefly with a bitter cherry twist. Crack into this summer, especially with protein like a grilled veg salad, or light salmon dishes.Tasted: 28 April 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Foxly Rosé 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis is pretty close to a single variety pinot gris, with a 20 percent dollop of pinot noir saignée to bring an attractive pale salmon hue to the glass. Expect crunchy orchard fruits and melon, with subtle cranberry and floral aromatics. Nicely balanced, bright acidity carries the 3 g/L residual sugar to a dry, crisp finish. It's meant to be fun and approachable, but the texture and concentration make it more than just a patio sipper.Tasted: 21 April 2021Tasted by: Prices:
