100 Points – John Schreiner
A Vintage like No Other
Mission Hill’s 2020 vintage represents the best vintage produced from one of the finest harvests Okanagan Valley has experienced. This Merlot-dominant blend imparts rich flavours of both red and blue fruits. The Cabernet Franc provides a subtle herbaceous undertone that enriches the wine’s complexity, while the Cabernet Sauvignon brings balance supporting length on the palate. A touch of Petit Verdot contributes to the wine’s structural composition. Aged nineteen months in small French oak barrels followed by an additional 24 months in bottle prior to release.
“The wine begins with appealing aromas of cassis, spice and dark cherry. The long and silky tannins support flavours of dark fruits with a hint of chocolate. The finish is persistent. A tour de force!” – John Schreiner
Merlot (49%), Cabernet Sauvignon (24%), Cabernet (22%), Petit Verdot (5%)
