Natalie's Score: 91/100

From Vinemount Ridge, Niagara Peninsula wine region, Tawse Quarry Road 2021 Pinot Noir is produced with organically grown grapes by winemaker Paul Pender. Fragrant and vibrant with ripe blueberry, earthy violets, raspberry, bright cherry with accents of sous bois, smoky and savoury flavours and awash with food-friendly acidity. Tannins are pleasantly grippy, so decant the wine one hour prior to pouring it with lamb chops from the grill. The wine spent 12 months in French oak barrels (20% new).

Pinot Noir food pairings: braised lamb with mushroom, duck confit, grilled veal chops.

Reviews and Ratings

Tawse Quarry Road 2021 Pinot Noir is produced by winemaker Paul Pender from organically grown grapes. Fragrant and juicy with ripe dark fruits, sweet baking spice (from oak treatment) dried fine herbs, earthy and vanilla flavours fresh on the palate, this Niagara Peninsula PN is totally harmonious with a beautifully balanced acidity. The wine was also matured 12 months in French oak barrels (20% new). Enjoy it through 2030. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
