Tasting notes
Palate
Silky and expansive. The palate is loaded with bright red fruit and a distinct salty minerality. Fine-grained tannins provide a sophisticated structure that leads to a long, peppery finish of red currant and earth.

In Detail
The first vintage crafted with Véronique Drouhin of Domaine Joseph Drouhin
Foxtrot is the estate that proved Canada could produce world-class Pinot Noir.
While most New World regions lean on heat and heavy extraction, Foxtrot focuses on elevation and glacial soils. The Waltz is a specific cuvée designed to showcase the harmony of the region. It is a masterclass in balance, blending fruit from the estate’s 25-year-old vines with premium fruit from high-altitude sites across the Okanagan and Similkameen Valleys.
The 2019 vintage is the winery's comeback masterpiece. It was a cooler growing season that allowed the grapes to develop complex aromatics and a silk-thread texture without the high alcohol often found in California or Oregon. The result is a wine with the ethereal, floral lift of a top-tier Chambolle-Musigny but with a distinct savory spice unique to the Naramata Bench. This is a small-production, hand-crafted wine that rivals $100+ bottles from the Willamette Valley.
