We had the pleasure of tasting all of Burrowing Owl's wines. His reputation as 'one of Canada's best winemakers' preceded Chris Wyse. And we were not disappointed. The Syrah stood out.

In western Canada, on the border with North America, lies the Okanagan Valley. A valley more than 400 kilometres inland from Vancouver. In this valley there are a number of lakes from north to south, with Okanagan Lake as the largest lake. The valley is on a similar latitude as Champagne, just suitable for wine growing. But what Okanagan does have in contrast to Champagne is dryness, many hours of sunshine and warmth. And so exceptionally beautiful wines are made here.

Al eerder dronk ik de Burrowing Owl Cabernet Sauvignon en onlangs de Cabernet Franc. Dit keer mocht ik de Syrah proeven. De wijnen van burrowing owl zijn allemaal heerlijk. Ik kan niet kiezen of ik de Cabernet Sauvignon of deze Syrah lekkerder vind. Misschien dat ik van beide gewoon nog een flesje moet bestellen om het nog eens extra te proeven.
Een mooie wijn met donker fruit die elke slok nog lekkerder smaakt.
