CedarCreek Platinum Pinot Noir Naramata Bench 2023

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaLike the East Kelowna Slopes Pinot Noir, this is initially somewhat reductive, but that's where the similarities end. If the former is more forward and lush, this is more reserved and savoury, especially within the context of the 2023 vintage. Expect juicy red cherry, savoury spices, and sappy herbs. The ripeness of the vintage comes through in the character of the fruit, with a sucrosity to the palate that gives this both fantastic weight and a silky, suave texture. It's a serious, compelling wine from the Naramata Ranch Vineyard.Tasted: 01 November 2025Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:
