This is a bright and cheerful Pinot. Quite zesty with a fair amount of acidity. The fruit is very present but of the red, lighter variety. The tannins are subtle, and nicely balanced. On the palate, however, it felt a bit slight and not particularly long. It’s very easy drinking, but in the same way not particularly profound. I’m not sure the drinking dates on this are right. I wouldn’t keep it more than a year or two, because I’d worry that it doesn’t pick the flavour to make it much longer.

big fruit with a sense of subtlety. very nice and easy to drink with very structured tannins typical of high quality Niagara wine. Love this stuff. 3 years left to grow... 5 - 10 left? Hard to say, definitely will look forward to tasting my other bottles in a couple years
