The 2016 harvest lasted 76 days and set records for being Mission Hill's and the Okanagan Valley's longest harvest ever. The lack of heatwaves in the summer kept sugar levels and phenolic maturity in sync so that ripening progressed slowly and predictably. Enjoy vivid, deep flavours, great acidity and excellent freshness. Vivid and fragrant, on the nose it’s a bouquet of dense black fruits, from currants to ripe blackberries, with a floral nuance. Layers of earthy character follows, with a cigar box and licorice complexity. The firm tannin structure lends itself to a long, rich and savoury finish.
