Weingut Sinss Spätburgunder Trocken 2016 (Golden Knights)
VS.
Tomich Woodside Vineyard Pinot Noir Adelaide Hills 2021 (Oilers)
Tale of the Tape:
Edmonton is the most dynamic team in the 2023 playoffs with a potent power play and three players who have chalked up over 100 points this year. The Golden Knights roster always seems like it is a bunch of outcasts and this year is no different as the team features Mark Stone, Jack Eichel, and Phil “The Thrill” Kessel.
Hockey WineUp Prediction:
Hockey WineUp is choosing Weingut Sinss Spätburgunder Trocken 2016 to win the second round match up. Head to head this German Pinot Noir combines a harmonious balance of ripe fruits and tannic grippyness.
