Mission Hill Reserve Merlot 2017

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThick, dark, and wooded, you can chew through this full-bodied merlot. Smoked cedar, sunripened cherry, and potent cassis rule the near 15% palate, with plushed, chewy tannins housing this to a warming finish. From estate vineyards in Oliver and Osoyoos, this was matured 15 months in French and American oak. It's a powerhouse now, and if that's what you're after, crack and enjoy.Tasted: 27 April 2020Tasted by: Prices:
