2005 Burrowing Owl Cabernet Franc

Community Tasting Note

Saturday, November 28, 2020 - slowly making my way through a case of these... no doubt the 05s are well on and past their prime. but i have to say there's still something left in the tank here, making it interesting. on the nose, some cherry, herbaceous tones, asian spices, and a notable sweet almost port-like note lingers. very little acidity remaining so it's very soft now and lacking the structure or crispness that it once had. that said, i'm always happy to come back to one of burrowing owl's best CF offerings from the 2000s.
