Lake Breeze Cellar Series Mistral 2018
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Mistral Syrah is part of the Lake Breeze Cellar Series, a luxurious collection adorned with a wind goddess. Winemaker Garron Elms says, “each varietal pays tribute to the regional wind that embodies its unique winemaking style.” The Mistral wind is a critical component in the terroir of the Rhône Valley, keeping disease due to dampness to a minimum. 2018 is a tasty little red with soft edges mixing pepper and black fruits, plums, cherries with a streak of blueberry. The harmony here will appeal to most drinkers, and its glossy textures are ready to drink. Try this with anything grilled on the barbecue to show it at its best.Tasted: 01 June 2022Tasted by: Prices:BC | $36.00 | 750ml | winery direct, VQA wine shops |
