91 Greystone 2011 Pinot Noir

Jefferson Davis

An inviting and complex pinot noir that is drinking nicely now but will work well for another 4-5 years. Appealing cherry, cola, herbal tea, and floral lift. Impressive red fruit focus with some raspberry tea notes and vibrant acidity. Good weight and a touch of firmness to the structure hints at medium term ageing potential. Well balanced overall with impressive length. ON $35.00 Hobbs and Co. Wine Merchants 416 694 3689

A vibrant and deftly layered pinot that delivers plenty of expression for the money. Look for pleasant aromas of cherry, strawberry, and spice amid floral notes. The red fruit depth impresses with brisk acidity and a touch of spicy complexity. Well proportioned with good length. Drink 2014-2017 with slow roasted poultry like chicken or quail.

Superior value in a beautifully fresh pinot noir with impressive structure. Enticing aromatic lift built on cherry, floral, and herbal notes with tinges of tea and spice. Expressive fruit core on the palate with lively acidity and some evident firmness that will help match this to a range of food. Drink 2014-2016 with poultry or grilled salmon.
