WineDiva's Review


Burrowing Owl's premium Bordeaux blend is comprised of 55% Cabernet Franc with 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon with a sprinkling of Malbec and Petit Verdot.
Expect smoked cherries, vanilla, black currents, plum cake, licorice and baking spice aromas atop a savoury core. It has excellent structure and fruit concentration; luscious chocolate is layered with sweet spice and black fruit. The tannins are fine and ripe and mocha flavours trail across the finish.
Excellent!
