JoieFarm PTG

PTG combines elegant Pinot Noir with rich, spicy Gamay to create an incredibly well-balanced wine. We work with Pinot Noir and Gamay because we feel that they excel in the cool, lake-moderated, desert climate of south-central British Columbia. The superiority of these varietals in our terroir is undeniable and, equally important, is their compatibility with Pacific Northwest cuisine.

Being Gamay dominant, this vintage of PTG is more earthy, meaty, and brambly than previous examples, but still offers plenty of juicy acidity and vivid fruit flavour. There’s almost the sensation of walking through a blackberry or strawberry patch (leaves, thorns, wet earth and all). Distilled roses, coffee, and pine notes make cameo appearances alongside the berries, as do oak and firm tannins.
