Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

So full of flavour and versatile! Lots of red cherry mixed with leather, smoke and warm spice on the palate. Medium bodied, with bright acidity, and lots of cherry, spice and smoke on the palate. There are some light, but grippy tannins present which really are balanced well and a lengthy finish. Enjoy this with pretty much anything, but it would pair particularly well with pork, lamb, or mushroom dishes.
Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Flavourful tart cherry and earthy sous bois nose with hints of dark chocolate. Mouthwatering palate and tangy finish with hints of anise. Enjoy with a lamb stew.

50th Parallel Estate Pinot Noir (2015) is ripe dark cherry, dark berries, smoke and spicy on the palate. Just a gorgeous, juicy and smooth PN from the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia. - Community Wine Reviews
