Plush, fragrant, texture.
The reserve range of Mission Hill's wines are fruit-forward and opulently-scented in style overall. The Merlot offers sweet blackberries and plums with baking spices and mocha, licorice and violets with cedar chips and vanilla. It's a supple wine with dark fruit, bitter cocoa and spice flavours. Then tannins add texture and there's nice freshness her to add levity. Overall, a solid red to pair with Camembert cheese and rich tomato based pastas, roasted meats.
