Crisp, bouncy, watermelon.
Now with three tiers of rose wines, Mission Hill's reserve tier blush is made from Merlot, Shiraz and Pinot Noir grown mostly in Osoyoos, but partially from Oliver.
While it doesn't touch the more premium Brigadier's Bluff Rose, it is a pale rose that is juicy and redolent with red berries, peach stone and watermelon aromas. It's crisp and bouncy, precise and very dry. It's light bodied and mouthwatering, with a medium finish.
Pairs great with Gone Crackers Undressed.
