Mission Hill Family Estate 2013 Five Vineyards Cabernet-Merlot (West Kelowna) Okanagan Valley - BC

Availability: BCLDB stores
Cost: $15.99 + taxes
Alcohol: 13.5%
Date Tasted: January 18th, 2016

Tasting Notes: A Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon leading blend, with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, sourced from Southern Okanagan Valley vineyards near Osoyoos and Oliver. Nose offers the expected Cab-Merlot aromas of dark berry fruit, cocoa nibs, Fall flowers and spiced oak but also some sharp, stem-y notes that sour the bouquet slightly and permeate through the dry, intense, dark fruit and charred oak-infused palate. Drink now-2017.
