Burrowing Owl Syrah 2012

Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaCoffee, vanilla, black cherry jam, meaty, light game nose with classic cool peppery, poultry spice, tobacco and clove aromas. Quite oaky overall. Dry, fresh, round, juicy palate with some light, dry tannins. Vanilla, chocolate, peppery, gamey, licorice and sausage meat flavours with some gingerbread and dried cherry on the finish. All good but this needs a few years to dampen the strong oak and integrate it into the wine.Tasted: 09 September 2015Tasted by: Prices:
