Our fifth back label writing contest winner: Film opening: A lonely Piot Noir grape walks a town’s streets. The evening breeze carries the scent of cherries, raspberries and currants. The grape follows it and reaches a bell-tower where clusters of grapes with voluptuous curves and seductive purplish hues cry, “C’mon, we’re going to a crushing. Then we get to lie around in French oak. Every sip is like a kiss.” Fade out on a Naramata sunset. - Composed by Mark LabaIn Stock

Winemaker Notes
A stunning hillside vineyard above Naramata village produced the lovely fruit for this Pinot Noir. A record-warm 2015 growing season created deep red fruit characters preserved by a long cold soak and careful cap management. Aging in French oak (37% new) for 8 months resulted in a medium bodied, fruit forward wine.
