Pure, expressive, smooth.
In a nod to the lesser known appellations of Burgundy (such as Fixin, Santenay and Mercurey) this reserve Pinot was chosen from their 12 best barrels, harvested from the Naramata Bench, Skaha Bench and Summerland. It was matured an additional 18 months prior to release.
Upfront and pure expressions of raspberry and violets with a core of vanilla and rainforest floor. It is smooth and fresh with forest berries, wild herbs, leather, fine spice and cedar. It's more restrained on the palate than the nose.
Pair: wild mushrooms, fresh salmon, duck, turkey and roasted fall vegetables such as pumpkin, sweet potato and roasted beets.
