Mission Hill Reserve Rosé 2021
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, Canada2021 Reserve Rosé is sourced from estate sites in Osoyoos and Oliver, first planted in 1997. The colour is barely visible, and the nose a subtle rush 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 tapas. This year, the blend has flipped around to 56% pinot noir, 23% merlot, and 21% syrah fermented in stainless steel. Good value too. Unprecedented midsummer heat led to the earliest start of harvest and the highest number of growing degree days on record.Tasted: 08 April 2022Tasted by: Prices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
