2022 Reserve Pinot Noir

A Refined, Complex, and Exquisitely Balanced Reserve Pinot Noir The 2022 Reserve Pinot Noir from Westcott Vineyards is a standout example of the best Pinot Noir that Niagara has to offer. Sourced exclusively from the Westcott Home Farm Vineyard, this wine is crafted with 30% whole-cluster fermentation and wild malolactic fermentation, creating remarkable depth and complexity. Tasting Notes The short crop in 2022 led to deeply concentrated fruit, giving this Reserve Pinot Noir plenty of character while still keeping its freshness. Bright and juicy, with notes of cherry, raspberry, and baking spice, the wine shows a lovely roundness from two years in barrel. Smooth, balanced, and expressive, it’s drinking beautifully now while still having the structure to age.
