TASTING NOTE: Grapes from three Niagara vineyards were used to create the blend of this effective and affordable Pinot Noir. The entry-level offering from 16 Mile Cellar, Rebel, is classically Niagara in its expression. Look for cranberry/cherry notes with pleasing floral and earthy notes. There's winning complexity here for the price and a refreshing juicy character that make this ready to drink now and over the next few years. Bargain hunters take note.
