Gismondi on Wine
90 points - Anthony Gismondi
The Meyer quaffing pinot noir is sourced from six separate Okanagan Valley vineyards. The goal is a juicy, easy-sipping house style that reflects its Okanagan origins. Typically the fruit is gently destemmed via gravity, and the berries are run into small open-top fermenters for a cold soak and an indigenous ferment lasting 18-28 days. From there, it gets a gentle press and an eight month sleep in older seasoned French oak barrels. Expect a softer, fresh red fruit affair with a touch of stony minerality that slips down effortlessly. The finish is silky and long. Duck pizza, chicken, pasta dishes, and salmon all work here.

Many of Meyer’s pinot noir vineyards are drawn upon for their most well-rounded and getable cuvée; McLean Creek Rd., Okanagan Falls, Teasdale Rd., Kelowna Windy Ridge, Kaleden, Cellarsbend and Naramata. Low yields, no new wood, eight months of elévage, high acidity and bone dry are the collective specs for a perfectly commissioned, righteously orchestrated and expertly amalgamated example of Okanagan pinot noir. Some may find it a tad volatile but I love it all the same. Juicy, sumptuous, up right, upstanding, full of vim, vigour and relish. Well-seasoned gastronomy in a glass. Drink 2021-2024. Tasted June 2021.
