| TASTING NOTE: Tawse has been named Winery of the Year at the National Wine Awards of Canada four times in the last seven years. A remarkable accomplishment, and one made possible by wines such as this ripe, elegant Pinot Noir. A popular demonstration of Tawse's characteristic precision winemaking, this is concentrated and complex, with telling, layered brambly fruit, earth, cedar and spice tones. Lithe and refined with an elegant, deftly articulated mouthfeel. Superb balance throughout provided by excellent acidity. (Vintages panel, Oct. 2017) |
