Tangy, powerful, silky.
From the warmer, South Okanagan Valley, one never expects the Burrowing Owl Pinot to be shy -- it is consistently a more masculine version. It has a distinct earthy character - smoky and dusty with tart red fruits, leather and dried sage. The palate is silky, the fruit here - darker and savoury. The finish is peppery and powerful.
Pair: Lamb, grilled portobello mushrooms, duck or beet risotto.
