Azadhi Pardis 2022

CanadaPale as a pinot noir with a slightly garnet rim, this shows integrated notes of cherry confit, mulberry, plum, strawberry, charcoal, and a tease of ripe berries, as well as an unusual impression of precision and balance. Though structurally very much on the lighter side, the palate includes clear, pure cherry, bramble, red plum, vanilla, mulberry, and chestnut. The finish is refined, supple and drifting. Fine grained tannins match well with the savoury fruits. This was aged for 22 months in French, American, and Hungarian oak, 37% new. The winery has deliberately withheld the Okanagan Valley grape blend here, but overall it brings to mind a lighter, balanced St. Julien.Tasted: 27 September 2025Tasted by: Brent GushowatyPrices:
