Pinot Noir VQA is a Canadian red wine made from Burgundian-type pinot noir vines, growing in the Ontario region of Canada. This almost light, dry and very acidic red wine has complex flavors. It reveals aromas of leather, tobacco, raspberry, plums and cherries. It is the perfect companion for a romantic dinner or with friends, a picnic, a winter evening or during the holiday season. We suggest you accompany it with salmon, slow-roasted pork or roast beef. It can also accompany a traditional turkey dinner, which will make this juicy Pinot Noir very tasty and digestible.
Pinot Noir is one of the oldest grape varieties grown in the history of the winery. Rich in resveratrol, an antioxidant with cardioprotective effects, pinot noir will always be a delicious beverage that will do your heart good, on the sole condition of drinking only two glasses a day. This is part of the VQA line of wines (VQA is a regulatory and appellation system that guarantees the high quality and authenticity of origin of Canadian wines made under this system in Ontario and British Columbia) . It is the third most expensive wine produced from Pinot Noir on Pelee Island in Ontario.
Pelee Island Winery is a 300+ hectare operation located in Canada's warmest wine region. A proud producer of exceptional wines with respect for the environment, this vineyard uses very few pesticides, and for its fertilizer, 100 sorghum grass% natural. The brand is committed to sustainability, and has taken its practice to the next level by earning Sustainable Winegrowing Ontario (SWO) certification.
Pinot Noir is the whim of great winemakers: a demanding grape that loves cool climates. Pelée Island, in Lake Erie, offers ideal conditions: temperate summers, long ripening, limestone soils. The result: a subtle, fine Pinot in North American Burgundy style.
Light ruby color, almost translucent. On the nose: sour cherry, raspberry, violet, undergrowth. On the palate: very fine tannins, fresh acidity, elegant finish with a touch of vanilla. A light and refined Pinot, without heaviness. Perfect for lovers of delicate reds.
Store the bottle lying down, in a cool place (12-15°C) away from light. Drink within 3-5 years to enjoy the fruit freshness. Serve at 14-16°C in a large Burgundy glass for good aeration. No need to decant.
Pinot Noir loves white meats and poultry (roast duck, chestnut turkey, mushroom guinea fowl). Also sublime with pan-seared salmon, sautéed mushrooms or brie. The magic combo: maple duck breast, its fruity roundness works wonders.
The Pelée Island Pinot is fruitier, more immediate than a classic Burgundy. Less earthy aromatic complexity, more cherry and freshness. Accessible price compared to Burgundies: 5 times cheaper for honorable quality. Ideal to discover Pinot without breaking the bank.
For lovers of delicate reds, those who don't like overly tannic wines. Perfect for Pinot Noir beginners or traveling oenophiles. Ideal for a festive meal, a romantic dinner, or as a gift for someone who appreciates elegance in wine.
