Pinot Noir 2022

From the extremely low yield 2022 vintage, this wine is the epitome of Twenty Mile Bench Pinot Noir. Violets, vanilla and spice mingle on a backbone of dark cherry. At once bold and delicate, this is a great example of our Hanck Vineyard terroir and a true celebration of a place that consistently produces extraordinary wines. Vintage 2022. 100% Pinot Noir (clones 114, 115, 777) from 16-year-old low yielding vines. Hand picked. Hand sorted. Wild Ferment. Natural MLF. Aged 21 months in French oak.

Appearance is medium ruby in colour. Aromas of ripe cherries and raspberries together balanced with hints of spice, vanilla, and violet. On the palate, it opens with a delicate mix of ripe red fruit together with juicy acidity. The mouthfeel is smooth and luxurious with nicely integrated fine tannins. Delicious on its own ... even better with baked salmon, turkey, mushroom pizza, and chocolate covered strawberries. Enjoy now or hold a few years for further development and maturation.
