CedarCreek Platinum Pinot Noir South Kelowna Slopes 2025
South Kelowna Slopes, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe 2025 vintage marks the return of Okanagan fruit and stands out as an outstanding year in the north. A warm growing season without heat spikes yielded high quality fruit with concentration, ripeness, and balance. This ideal combination allows winemaker Andrés Gálvez Pizarro to refine CedarCreek's style, reducing acidity and enhancing mid-palate weight and richness for a delightful pinot noir. Originally from Santiago, Chile, Andrés developed his passion for winemaking early, honing his skills in Chile and New Zealand before spending ten years at CedarCreek working with veterans Darryl Brooker and Taylor Whelan. Pizarro's approach appeals to consumers who favour the softer, silkier characteristics of pinot noir, and this is clearly reflected in the 2025 edition.Tasted: 02 August 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $62.00 | 750ml | not yet released; will be winery online/direct |
