Smells like pinot... yeah! Mission Hill has done a fine job evolving its pinot noir and the 2011 is a case in point....

2016?? nice but not buying more

now! 2019

July 2019....didn't have that favourable an impression from the first one but I quite enjoyed this second one, perhaps it just matured into a happy boy. A full flavoured pinot....I would probably buy this again.
