2018 Kettle Valley Pinot Noir Hayman "John's Block"

8/28/2022 - Scorpius Likes this wine: 93 Points
Hayman "John's Block" is a scarce find as only 80 cases were made in 2018. The region experienced a barrage of forest fires, and there are subtle hints of smoke on the palate. There are flavors of strawberry and cherry, in a jammy profile. It was paired with pork loin, and the smoky notes complemented the meat. Despite the environmental challenges experienced by Kettle Valley, this is a very pleasant and unique wine for 2018.

To quote TIMDREX, "At its age it still has incredible concentration and power. No signs of being at its peak."

I couldn't have said it better myself.
