Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe '21 Meyer Pinot is a mix of three Okanagan Vineyards: Teasdale Road in Southeast Kelowna, Fat Coyote on the Naramata Bench, and Lakehill Road in Kaleden. The destemmed fruit is partially native fermented over four weeks before ageing eight months in older French barrels and puncheons, meant to expand and grow the wine without any oak influence. The style is fleshy with a distinct, barnyard, earthy undercurrent that equalizes the black cherry and absorbs some of the spice and acidity. Ready to drink and would be a hit with duck pizza.Tasted: 27 August 2022Tasted by: Prices:
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis year's Meyer Pinot Noir comes from three Okanagan Vineyards: Teasdale Road Vineyard in Southeast Kelowna, Fat Coyote Vineyard on the Naramata Bench, and Lakehill Road Vineyard in Kaleden. The destemmed fruit was partially native fermented over four weeks before eight months in older French barrels and puncheons. Smoked stone, fleshy black cherry, blackcurrant is heavily scented with nutmeg and cloves on a plumped palate, with tart, blackcurrant acidity sharpening. The finish lingers with cinnamon warmth. Certainly a different shade of pinot noir; this is one to crack into with heartier dishes / autumnal stews.Tasted: 05 September 2022Tasted by: Prices:
