Quails' Gate Pinot Noir 2020

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSourced from several vineyards and a variety of clones, the 2020 fruit enjoyed a superior growing season. The regular QG Pinot is cold soaked for five days, fermented separately on skins for 10-20 days, and pressed off to new and old French oak barrels for nine months. I like the mix of sour cherry and ripe raspberries lightly dusted in cedar. The styling is elegant and reserved, with a silky spicy finish. The winery suggests a late season mushroom, squash risotto, seared game meats, or roasted pork with wild rice and root vegetables. Drink or hold.Tasted: 02 September 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
