A supple, smooth, seductive red wine made from estate grown BC Syrah grapes. Syrah really shines in the Okanagan Valley and here's a great example of it. Pair with pork tenderloin.

Syrah food pairings: lamb tangine, roast rack of lamb, beef long ribs on the barbie.

Reviews and Ratings

Burrowing Owl's 2015 Syrah is silky smooth with mulberry, blueberry, cake spice and smoky vanilla flavours on the palate. The full-bodied red is off dry with balanced acidity, great structure and a long spicy finish. Burrowing Owl Winery have been producing this silky, elegant red on the Black Sage Bench since 2005. This vintage was awarded Platinum at the 2017 National Wine Awards of Canada. - Community Wine Reviews
