Mission Hill Reserve Rosé 2021

16^¼/20

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaTasted last May, I’m happy to report this rosé under screwcap remains vibrant today. The Reserve label is sourced from estate sites in Osoyoos and Oliver where the vines are now 23 years old. The colour is barely visible pink and the nose is a mix of watermelon and ripe raspberries. It's bright, light, elegant, and simply fun to drink. Best of all, it is fresh and crisp and finished dry. It is made for afternoon tapas. This year, the blend has flipped around to 56% pinot noir, 23% merlot, and 21% syrah fermented in stainless steel. Good value too.Tasted: 24 November 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Mission Hill Reserve Rosé 2021

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA blend of pinot noir, merlot, and syrah from the Black Sage Bench and Osoyoos East Bench, this is an elegant, restrained rosé that's equal parts serious and fun. The fruit pulls you into the glass, with pink grapefruit and watermelon that are joined by delicate florals and herbs. It's dryish, textured, and refreshing, with mouthwatering acidity that gives this a moreish character. Nicely done. Best enjoyed this summer.Tasted: 08 April 2022Tasted by: Prices:
