Beautiful fruit on the nose, along with a slight barnyard quality. Mouthfuls of cherry, raspberry and bramble, smoothed with notes vanilla, cedar and sweet cream. There's also a curious fresh forest/pine taste on the periphery. The tannin and acidity are just right – present, but not too puckery or mouth-watering – and the finish is long, but the finish turns a touch unpleasant as it dissolves. All in all, this could be the best Canadian pinot I've yet tried.

Way over the top good. A real pleasure in its balance and complexity. A must try.
