1 Mill Road Pinot Noir Block Two 2020

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBlock 2, planted to Dijon clone 115, sits just above Home Block Vineyard on a heavy glacial silt bench at the north end of the Naramata Bench. The richer soil plays a role in the denser character of this wine, which is juicer, more fruit forward, and spicier than its companion Home Block release. Plenty of dried cherry, mushroom, and dark chocolate fill in extensive, open, herbal, silky finish that runs long. You can drink this now or hold off through 2024. A perfect duck confit match, or serve it with a favourite pork dish.Tasted: 07 April 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
