Mission Hill Pinot Noir Five Vineyards 2012
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaMission Hill did a slight rebrand on their very popular Five Vineyards series, now newly reborn as 5V. Light and lifted youthful cherry, beetroot and raspberry jam aromas leading to a medium body, dominated by iced black tea tannins, black cherry, light earthiness and plump plummy fruit. Another solid entry in the popular 5V series from Mission Hill, and an identifiable and approachable pinot noir for under $20 - challenging no matter what part of the world you're from, but particularly impressive from BC. I paired this to a porchetta and cranberry sandwich with tasty success.Tasted: 06 April 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $20.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
