Burrowing Owl Estate Winery Sauvignon Blanc 2017, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia V.Q.A., Canada: From the Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, Burrowing Owl 2019 Sauvignon Blanc has a splash of Semillon added to it. Bright and fragrant on the nose with gooseberry, tropical fruit, lemon meringue and wild herb aromas, this is a beautifully-balanced and complex white wine; dry and mouth-filling with layers of tropical fruit, grapefruit, apple, fine herb, citrus peel, nutty, spicy and flinty mineral flavours on the palate. Elegant, beautifully-crafted and summer in a glass for sure. Pour with grilled chicken dishes. The Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grapes were harvested by hand with 35% of the juice fermented and aged for three months in a selection of new French oak with a small portion in Acacia barrels; the balance of the juice was fermented and aged in stainless-steel tanks. Sauvignon Blanc food pairings: smoked white fish, grilled mahi mahi with peach chutney, fish tacos. Drink: 2019 - 2021 609347 13.5% XD 750 mL $34.95 Score: 88/100. March 2020.
