*Pick up orders are available next day for pick up" ‘Koosah’ is from the Coast Salish dialect meaning ‘beautiful ceiling of the sky.’ This site, grown at 280 metres, is the highest in the AVA and planted on its own roots in rocky basalt and shallow top soils. This wine offers up effusive aromatics of alpine scrub and pine bough, followed on by cut persimmon aromatics. There is ample, fleshy blue fruit and a savoury spiced backbone to this elegantly knit Pinot Noir. Bramble berries, juicy blood orange and plenty of signature Eola-Amity spice carry into the finish." - 95 points, Decanter
"The 2021 Pinot Noir Koosah Vineyard, from vines planted in 2016 at 900 feet in elevation, was matured for 14 months. The nose features wild blackberries and blueberries with nuances of blood orange, lilac and earth. The medium-bodied palate is supple and mouthwatering, with finely grippy tannins reminiscent of steeped black tea. It has surprisingly concentrated, floral fruit and a fan of spice across the long finish. This expressive Pinot Noir, from relatively young vines, is delicious right now, yet it will age gracefully over the next decade." - 95 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
