I reviewed the Shuttleworth Creek Pinot Noir 2022 and it made the top 8 due to its vibrant tranquillity (if that makes sense). It’s a beautiful and elegant Pinot Noir that has great approachability yet offering layered complexity and elegance.

I am delighted to share my findings after tasting 35 Pinot Noirs from the Okanagan Valley, spanning the 2020 to 2022 vintages. Before diving into the reviews, let’s briefly discuss the tasting process and criteria used for evaluation.

There will be no scoring of the wines but rather honest assessments and opinions. I will be sharing with you both objectively and subjectively how I view these wines. Hopefully you find it both useful and entertaining.
