2016 DeHART VINEYARD PINOT NOIR
90 POINTS
“Compared to the lusher and fruitier Naramata Ranch, this is a little more precise, a lot tighter, and it seems a bit sterner… This still has good fruit to go with its elegant presentation.”

NATIONAL ARCHITECTURE HONOR AWARD
Martin’s Lane Winery Wins Major Architecture Award
From its inception, Martin’s Lane Winery has been an amazing project built with many hands but only one intention… to make world class Pinot Noir and Riesling in the Okanagan Valley. It’s a special honour for Martin’s Lane to be recognized with a National Architecture Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects (AIA). This is the “Academy Awards” in the world of architecture, and we couldn’t be more excited to receive this distinction.
