Mission Hill Merlot Barrel Aged Private Reserve 1998

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaGood colour with cooler tomato leaf, forest floor and barnyard aromas. Lovely smoky vanilla cherry flavours that have good intensity and weight. There's some dryness in finish from the young tannins but this wine has potential to improve. Good value.Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
