Foxtrot Blanc de Noir Traditional Sparkling Wine 2020
Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe inaugural Foxtrot sparkling wine is a stunning blanc de noirs, shimmering in the palest shade of pink and animated by a mesmerizing stream of exceptionally fine bubbles that rival some of Champagne's best. It comes from just down the road at Therapy Vineyards, where the Boyd family conceived it, and winemaker Jack Kempf crafted it. In a twist of fate, the Boyds later sold Therapy and acquired Foxtrot, reuniting with Kempf to rebuild Foxtrot from the vineyard up. It seems only fitting that this wine should become Foxtrot's first Blanc de Noir release. Fresh, energetic, and intriguingly complex, it offers an early glimpse of the exciting future taking shape at this small Naramata Bench property under Kempf's stewardship. Widely regarded as one of British Columbia's foremost chardonnay and pinot noir specialists, Kempf is bringing a clear vision to Foxtrot, and this sparkling wine is an impressive statement of intent. Already among the finest sparkling wines being produced in the province, it suggests the best is yet to come.Tasted: 14 September 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $50.00 | 750ml | winery online/direct |
