Pleasant fruit and common PN notes. Really speaks to the cool climate terroir.

Old world both on the nose and palate: earthy, tart red fruits, and minty. Medium plus acidity, light body and minimal soft tannins.

Great wine with cheese! Very light, perfect on a hot summer night

Earthy and soft with lots of cherry and raspberry, some violets, light bodied with a long finish that hints at cedar and forest floor. A good value Pinot from the Niagara peninsula.
