2023 Tightrope Pinot Noir | 90pts | New Release! grilled wild rice stuffed red pepper There is an intriguing spiceThis Naramata Bench Pinot Noir spent 10 months in 30% new oak, and delivers a pure, clean and medium body expression of Naramata Pinot. The nose has a hint of earthiness and herbs, but mostly cherry and blue fruits. On the palate, full on red cherry, blue plum, a bit of black currant, a good amount of oak spice after the mid palate, and a tight finish at the moment which I predict with open up over time. A very pleasant discovery! A nice easy drinking
