Mission Hill Five Vineyards Pinot Noir

MISSION HILL - FIVE VINEYARDS PINOT NOIR 08/09Mission Hill Five Vineyards Pinot Noir

This is probably the best Pinot Noir I've ever had. The second best I've ever had came from the Okanagan region too. I guess this grape likes B.C. Pinot Noir is said to be a "notoriously picky grape" to grow. Basically if your going to buy it, don't skimp out and get the best you can afford. This one was only about $20 and it was well worth it. It offers lightness but intensity at the same time and has a silky smooth texture that is so mouth watering and juicy I would really like another bottle right now.... I think it's a really good start for people who are not sure if they like red wines as it is not so intense as others can be. It would be great paired with any poultry, asian dishes, salmon or cheeses. Loved it!
