FATS JOHNSON PINOT NOIR
Okanagan Valley BC VQA
History:
A kindly older neighbor, Fats Johnson was known for loading donuts onto a long pole, and giving them away to kids as they rode by on their bicycles. His dog Tupper was a constant companion, and always by his side.
Tasting Notes:
Our 2009 Pinot Noir
features fresh strawberry and cherry notes. The bright fruit character mingles
nicely with delicate touches of spice.
Food Pairing Notes:
This fresh and lively Pinot Noir is ideally served with lighter savoury
fare; seared rare tuna, skewered grilled vegetables dressed with balsamic vinegar
and herbed roasted pork loin. The medium bodied wine is a perfect partner
for most foods, and is equally fabulous on its own.

- "The Prospect Winery Fats Johnson Pinot Noir hails from the Okanagan Valley and for $18.99 is definitely a wine you need to have on-hand if you like reds a little bit lighter in style. It’s juicy and ripe with lovely strawberry fruit character and a kiss of oak to make it more complex. Absolutely perfect with roast chicken….."
