Bachelder Lowrey Old Vines I Vielles Vignes 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. These vines were planted between 1988 and 1993, on a gentle slope at the base of the Niagara Escarpment. Sultry wild raspberry, cherry roll across the silken palate, with tight, bright acidity and fine, long tannins framing this to a lengthy saline finish.Tasted: 23 July 2022Tasted by: Prices:
