Haywire Pinot Noir 2019
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis year's white label Pinot Noir was destemmed and native fermented in a mix of concrete tanks, 600 litre puncheons, and amphora before heading to concrete to finish MLF and a 10 month rest prior to bottling in August 2020 with no filtration. Perfumed and silky, this streams fragrant raspberry, plum and cherry along a softer, finely textured palate, finishing with a wisp of dessert scrub. Friendly and smart pinot, not dumbed down any, and primed for drinking now, amply.Tasted: 24 July 2021Tasted by: Prices:BC | $26.90 | 750ml | winery online, grocery, VQA and select private retailers |
