Burrowing Owl "Athene" Syrah/Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml
Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
The great qualities of south Okanagan Syrah are well captured on the nose with blueberry, blackberry and damson plum aromas with complex meaty, gamy and pepper notes. The Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend contributes cedar and cassis and its renowned structure. On the palate the wine is full with plenty of acidity and tannin to give backbone and frame the game meat, blackberry, plum, red currant, black pepper and smoked paprika flavours that last on the long finish. Pair this with a grilled flank steak topped with black olive butter
