Meyer Family Vineyards Pinot Noir Old Block McLean Creek Vineyard 2019

Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOld Block comes off the original 1994 vineyard plantings and is the largest pinot block (roughly one acre) at McLean Creek Road. The clone is unknown. The nose is almost aromatic, as it wafts raspberries and forest floor out of the glass. The flavour mix is underripe black cherry, sweet ripe raspberries, and earthy dark plums supported by delicate, silky textures that sing along the palate. The finish is lengthy, with an enticing mix of violets and spice. The balance suggests you can drink this now or hold it because there is no rush. McLean Creek Road Vineyard is located in Okanagan Falls on a predominantly steep southerly aspect with the soil comprised of alluvial and glacial deposits.Tasted: 01 May 2021Tasted by: Prices:
