Pinot Noir
Okanagan Pinot Noir is shaped by warm days and cool nights, giving it bright acidity and balanced ripeness. Expect fruit ranging from tart red berries to darker, richer notes, often with a touch of earth—fresh, structured, and rarely overly oaked or sweet.
About Pinot Noir
Okanagan Pinot Noir is defined more by diversity than style. From the heat of Osoyoos to the cooler slopes of Naramata Bench, it ranges from light, high-acid wines with bright red fruit to deeper, more structured expressions with dark fruit and earthy notes. Warm days build ripeness, while cold desert nights preserve freshness. What stands out is balance—ripeness without heaviness, and precision over overly sweet, oaked styles.
Flavor Profile
Bright red berries (cranberry, cherry), sometimes darker fruit (plum), with subtle earth, fresh acidity, and a clean, balanced finish.
Food Pairings
Roast chicken, duck, pork, salmon, mushroom dishes, and soft cheeses—anything that lets the acidity and bright fruit cut through without overpowering the wine.
