2022 Cuvee Pinot Noir

Source

A combination of Pinot Noir grapes selected from Summerland and East Kelowna.

Winemaking

Dijon clones 667, 115, 828, 777, and Pommard are hand harvested and destemmed into small batches. Each batch is cold soaked for 5-7 days before ambient fermentation. Approximately 3 weeks on skins before gently pressing and moving to French oak barrel for 13 month (40% new oak). Our Cuvée blend varies each year depending on the winemaker’s barrel selection.

Tasting Notes

The 2022 vintage is packed with baked cherry, blackberry, violet, and brown sugar. There is a pleasant damp earth and thyme spice note. The palate is fresh and bright with flavours of Bing cherry, pomegranate, red currant, and chocolate raspberry. Hints of Allspice linger on the finish.

Pair with grilled lamb chops, Roquefort cheese, pecan pie.
