The Story
The Noble Ridge Pinot Grigio is a crisp and aromatic white wine produced in the heart of the Okanagan Falls sub-appellation. Crafted by Noble Ridge Vineyard & Winery, the wine is typically grown on north-facing slopes where the cooler exposure helps maintain vibrant acidity. The 2023 Reserve vintage offers an expressive bouquet of green apple, white peach, and citrus zest, complemented by delicate floral notes of honeysuckle. On the palate, it is clean and dry with an energetic texture, featuring flavours of pear, blood orange, and a distinct mineral-driven finish reminiscent of wet stones. Due to a severe winter freeze in 2024, the winery also released a limited "Vilicus" Series Pinot Grigio sourced from Washington's Horse Heaven Hills to maintain their legacy while their own vineyards recover.
