Bachelder Lowrey Old Eastern Block Pinot Noir 2019
St David's Bench, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThomas Bachelder is one of Canada's leading chardonnay and pinot noir specialists, honed through time in Bourgogne and Oregon, as well as years in the vineyards of his Niagara home base. This single vineyard St. David's Bench pinot noir is some of the oldest pinot noir vines in Niagara. The Lowrey Vineyard was once part of the Alliance project between Jaffelin (Burgundy) and Inniskillin. This is from the oldest block at Lowrey Vineyard, planted in 1984 and 1988. Perfumed and elegant from the fore, with wild raspberries, wild cherries woven with tight, fine spicing and black tea leaves across a graceful palate. Wild herbs and salinity season, all framed with long, fine tannins. Energy and finesse, this is drinking beautifully now and with time ahead.Tasted: 23 July 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Bachelder Lowrey Old Eastern Block Pinot Noir 2019
St David's Bench, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThis is from the oldest block at Lowrey Vineyard, planted in 1984 and 1988 on St. David's Bench, not far from the Niagara River. The nose is lifted and perfumed, showing a combination of bright, pure fruit, with crunchy red cherries and raspberries, alongside fresh herbs and subtle spices. The palate manages to be both light and delicate yet exceptionally concentrated with remarkable energy and intensity to the fruit, along with underlying stoniness that carries the finish. Quite simply, wow.Tasted: 29 November 2021Tasted by: Prices:
