Rim Rock Pinot Noir 2005

Tasting Notes

We find our full-bodied and well-rounded Pinot Noir reminiscent of an opulent Mercurey from Burgundy, France. One year in French oak barrels highlights the juicy cherry and strawberry compote flavours, in addition to warm chutney spices and a hint of fresh herbs.

Suggested Food Pairings

Our Rim Rock 2005 Pinot Noir is a full-bodied, well-rounded and velvety red. It is perfectly paired with a mushroom and brie tart or roasted duck breast with Saskatoon berry compote. The classic Pinot Noir pairing is to warm a generous wedge of brie cheese, serve with a fresh baguette and a glass of Bounty Cellars Pinot Noir – ét voila!.
