Mission Hill Oculus 2013 1.5L Magnum

Mission Hill Oculus 2013 is the flagship Bordeaux-style red blend from British Columbia's premier producer in the Okanagan Valley. Sourced primarily from estate vineyards in the warm Osoyoos and Oliver sub-regions, this 2013 vintage displays an intense ruby-purple hue with rich aromatics of dark plum, blackberry, cocoa, cedar, dried violets, and warm spices. Aged for over 16 months in French oak barrels, it delivers a full-bodied, structured palate supported by firm yet supple tannins, well-integrated oak, vibrant acidity, and a long, savory, mineral-accented finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs superbly with prime filet mignon, roasted rack of lamb, braised beef short ribs, venison, and aged hard cheeses.
