Stag's Hollow Pinot Noir Shuttleworth Creek Vineyard 2020
Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSilky aromas of cherries, kirsch, and some breezy, sweet baking spices immediately beckon, along with more complex strawberry and marionberry. There are lively flourishes of fruit and sweet spice on the nose. The flavours go straight to a pirouetting mid-palate, then slide into a second darker, supple fruit layer built on rich cherry and wild strawberry. It is exceptionally elegant, with a beautiful accompanying acidity that keeps the flavours fresh. The Dijon clones pitch it more forward and showy with red fruit flourishes. Elegant, flirty, balanced, this is a real showoff.Tasted: 10 October 2023Tasted by: Prices:BC | $30.00 | 750ml | winery direct, private retail, restaurants |
