Okanagan Valley VQA, British Columbia – 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Bold and structured, this deep garnet Cabernet shows cassis, blackberry, graphite, mint, and warm spice. Layers of black cherry, espresso, and roasted herbs are framed by firm tannins and fresh acidity. Pair with grilled rib-eye, rosemary-crusted lamb, aged cheeses, or Braised Short Rib (by WineBar) with Hasselback potato, broccolini, balsamic demi-glaze, and crispy onions. Burrowing Owl Estate Winery, founded in 1993 near Oliver, BC, is a family-run estate. Rated ~93 points by Matt Steeves, with aging potential through 2035.
