A structured red wine from Canada, from the Okanagan Valley A.O.C. in British Columbia, made by Mission Hill Family Estate, founded in 1981.
The 2021 vintage comes from organic estate vineyard blocks in the south Okanagan sub-regions of Osoyoos and Oliver, on nutrient-poor gravelly and sandy alluvial soils over deep glacial till. The microclimate brings intense summer heat and high solar radiation balanced by cool evening mountain breezes.
The wine shows crème de cassis, wild dark plums, crushed blackberries, dark cherries, black pepper, dried violet, dark chocolate, tobacco leaf, graphite and toasted French oak spice, with a full-bodied palate, firm fine-grained tannins and a long dry savory finish.
