Description
Burrowing Owl marked their 25th anniversary in 2018. Their Meritage is always a pure, complex expression of the five principal Bordeaux grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot. It will deliver impressive ripe dark fruit, oak and coffee notes in a balanced, structured package. John Szabo, MS, of winealign.com awarded both the 2013 and 2014 vintages a score of 92 points, citing the wine's concentration and density in both years. Of the 2014, he said it was '... not more than a stylistic stone's throw from many of Napa's finest'; a measure of the excellence of both this wine and the celebrated winery behind it.
Tasting Notes
The blend is 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, 10% Petit Verdot and 3% Merlot. The varietals were aged separately in barrel (70% French) for 15 months, with the best barrels selected for this blend. Once the components were selected, the blend spent another 3months in barrel before being bottled. This is a superb wine, beginning with bold aromas of dark fruits mingled with spice. The bold character carries over to the rich, intense palate, with flavours of black cherry, cassis, vanilla and plum. Score - 95. (John Schreiner, johnschreiner.blogspot.com, Feb. 28, 2022)
