Domaine Queylus Reserve du Domaine Pinot Noir 2013
Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThe Reserve pinot noir is a barrel selection described as more reserved than the ‘Tradition,’ by winemaker Thomas Bachelder, and capable of improvement through mid-to-longer-term ageing. It is sourced from two organically farmed vineyards, one from Beamsville's Lincoln Lakeshore sub app and the other from the Twenty Mile Bench sub app. Destemmed and fermented wild, this spent 16-20 months in French oak (1/3 new). This vintage is ripe and concentrated, with perfumed and sapid black raspberry and cherry drawn along lengthy, lightly grippy tannins and streaming along a juicy palate. Elegance and style are hallmarks of this drinkable-now pinot, but this will reward with five to eight years ageing in the cellar. 1000 six-packs available.Tasted: 18 May 2017Tasted by: Treve Ring & Anthony GismondiPrices:| ON | $29.95 | 750ml | winery direct |
