Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSourced out of the Home Block in East Kelowna, the regular edition of CedarCreek Pinot Noir checks all the boxes in 2019, but with a little less fruit and lot more earthy undertones. The attack is savoury and woodsy with sour cherry, blackberries, and mushrooms that come with a density from front to back. A solid effort in a year that was marginal in September. Duck pizza, anyone?Tasted: 24 September 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe deep ruby colour alludes to what’s to come in the glass: a dark, brooding pinot that combines dark cherry and plum with layers of earth and spice. It's serious pinot for $27, with a savouriness and structure that you don't always find in entry level bottlings. It's Okanagan through and through, though, combining ripe fruit and succulent acids, with a concentration that is well above the norm. Serve this lightly chilled and pair with grilled meats; this medium-full bodied pinot can handle it. Good value.Tasted: 27 September 2021Tasted by: Prices:
