Foxly Pinot Noir 2020

16^½/20

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaStarts with a precocious flourish of savoury cherry, a touch of barnyard, blueberry, kirsch, vanilla, sweet baking spices, and an excellent range of red fruits including strawberry and mulberry. In the glass, a similar potpourri of flavours, with all elements well balanced and the red fruits really entertaining. Good length in the finish. Give it an hour to open fully. Foxly is the second label of Foxtrot Vineyards. Affordable and ready to drink, they made their debut in 2018.Tasted: 12 October 2023Tasted by: Prices:

Foxly Pinot Noir 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFoxly is the second label from Foxtrot, which has entered an exciting new chapter under talented winemaker Andrea Barker. This is a sappy, savoury pinot noir sourced from the Okanagan and Similkameen, showing dusty cranberry, lifted strawberry, and spice, on a light, juicy frame with supple tannins. Very pinote, and a winner at this price, that would compare favourably against entry-level Bourgogne.Tasted: 28 November 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Foxly Pinot Noir 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Foxly label is part of the Naramata Foxtrot Estate lineup, although crafted to be ready to drink. The nose mixes red fruit and blood notes with an earthy undercurrent. The fruit is a mix of Similkameen and Okanagan sites fermented separately in stainless steel and aged in 30 percent new French oak for 14 months. The tannins are barely noticeable in a finish that builds on mushroom spice and dried strawberries. A perfect early fall red for a mushroom dish.Tasted: 01 July 2022Tasted by: Prices:
