wine review: Norman Hardie County Pinot Noir 2020

One of the best offerings I've tasted from PEC over the past two decades and a fantastic example of the high quality wines being produced in PEC. If you enjoy premium Burgundy, you'll want to keep your eyes on this up and coming region and the expressive limestone influenced cool-climate wines they're producing.

Wine review: Staete Landt State of Grace Pinot 2019, Marlborough, NZ

Coming to LCBO on April 13th, Staete Landt State of Grace Pinot Noir from the Rapaura & Brancott sub appellations of Marlborough, NZ. Light ruby, the nose shows cherry, plum, herbs, rose petals, earthy notes, and minerality.  The palate reveals the refreshing tart fruit, fine grained tannins, and harmonious balance.  A serious Pinot with its impressive structure and complexity, a fantastic expression of this top of the line State of Grace label Pinot.   Enjoy over the next five years with grilled lamb or pork tenderloin.  Tasted April 2024.  93 points.  Matt Steeves - www.quercusvino.ca
