Mission Hill Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2001
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSpicy oak dill and green bean nose black berry cherry aromas with a touch of mocha in the background. There is plenty of lively acidity in what is a lean-ish Bordelais style with a smoky oak, vanilla and a peppery finish. Needs time and or a piece of venison to flush out the body. Should continue to improve in bottle over the next 18 months.Tasted: 16 September 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $19.95 | 750ml | Specialty |
