Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Darlene Myers rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

Burrowing Owl is one of my favorite vineyards in Canada with a great staff and great wine. This Merlot is full of juicy dark plum flavours with cedar and smoke and soft tannins to round it off. I have a shipment of this wine on order and can't wait to receive it and enjoy it even more.
Shows why the winery built its reputation as one of the Okanagan’s leading Merlot producers. This wine is juicy on the palate, with concentrated flavours of plum and black currant and with spicy red fruit in the aroma and on the finish.
