This is a 2020 Valerie Pinot Noir of exceptional quality from the cool 2020 season.
The Valerie series is made from carefully selected, small parcels of supreme quality wine and named in honour of Valerie Friend as co-founder of Narkoojee.
The wine was fermented by indigenous yeasts and a portion matured in new French oak hogsheads. It has intense flavour, excellent balance, great length and complexity.

The Real Review
“Light to medium red colour with a purple rim and an oak-influenced bouquet—toasty and char-oak scented, traces of chocolate and vanilla, the palate quite intense and long, with a charming array of flavours and beautifully-judged soft, powdery tannins. A delicious pinot. Even better in a year or so after that oak has further mellowed into it.” – Huon Hooke
