2014 Burrowing Owl Meritage

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

88 Points

Monday, January 7, 2019 - Hmmm, not as exciting as it was at a tasting a few months prior. Seems a bit closed off in the fruit dept and therefore the oak is quite dominant. OK with some ageing potential but so much better value is out there from BC like the Fifth Element from Road 13 or the Hourglass from Black Widow.

    Will check out Poplar Grove. Thanks for the tip!
