2022 Pommard Pinot Noir
Source
These grapes are sourced from Summerland, British Columbia.
Winemaking
The grapes for this unique wine are 100% Pommard. Harvested by hand, undergoes fermentation following a 6-day maceration period. Following spontaneous fermentation, the wine is moved to French oak barrels to mature for 13 months (25% new).
Tasting Notes
On the nose, it showcases a complex bouquet of dark fruit, such as black currant and dark cherry, along with notes of Iris, Allspice, and tobacco leaf. The palate is robust, with fine tannins beautifully balanced with the acidity and flavour intensity. The fruit characteristics persist on the palate, along with coffee, sweet spice, and potting soil. The wine is both floral and earthy, very Burgundian in style.
Pair with sharp cheddar, dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher), roast duck.
