Mission Hill Family Estate Compendium 750ml

The Legacy Collection represents the pinnacle of excellence in the Okanagan Valley. Through their unwavering commitment to quality, they meticulously hand-pick the finest fruit from their estate vineyards and carefully sort each block. These limited-production wines are highly sought-after and perfect for cellaring. 2. Back in 1981, the Okanagan was not yet recognized as a wine region, but rather known for its exceptional stonefruit orchards. It was a time when grape growers were just starting to take risks and plant vines in untested terrain. 3. Despite the risks, the valley's unique soil profiles, long, hot growing days, and diverse microclimates offered an opportunity to produce wines with a distinct terroir. This potential inspired Mission Hill Family Estate's vision for the future of Okanagan wine. 4. Today, after being named Canada's only five-time winner of Winery of the Year and receiving numerous international awards for their varietals, they continue to draw inspiration from the valley and their vineyards. For them, the journey is far from over. 5. This exceptional Bordeaux blend is the result of a careful combination of soil, climate, and clone selection. The porous soil forces the vines to work harder for nutrients, resulting in fruit that is both elegant and luscious.
