Joiefarm En Famille Pinot Noir 2022 Wine Review

Natalie's Score: 93/100

JoieFarm's En Famille Pinot Noir from the Naramata Bench is a graceful, cool-climate expression of Burgundy's most beloved red grape, drawing from over 35 vineyard sites scattered across the Okanagan Valley at elevations that coax out freshness and precision. The wine is translucent ruby in the glass with aromas of ripe Bing cherry, crushed raspberry, dried rose, and a delicate thread of cedar and forest floor that speaks beautifully to its terroir. On the palate it is medium-bodied and supple with velvety tannins, a juicy core of red fruit, and a lifted natural acidity that makes every sip feel effortless and inviting. It is bone dry, best served just below room temperature, and will drink well through 2028. Winemaker Richard Charnock, who joined JoieFarm in 2022 after his tenure at Pentage Winery, has seamlessly carried on the estate's European-inspired philosophy. Notably, the En Famille Reserve Pinot Noir earned a Gold Medal at the prestigious Decanter World Wine Awards in London, one of only 454 gold medals awarded among over 15,000 entries from around the globe.

Pinot Noir food pairings: roast chicken with herb butter and pan jus, seared salmon with lentils and a pinot reduction, mushroom and goat cheese tart with fresh thyme.
