Burrowing Owl 2018 Athene

A deep, brooding wine with intense aromas of cassis, blueberry and blackberry along with black pepper, vanilla, dark chocolate, graphite and some dried herbs and burlap. The palate is full-bodied and intense with crisp acidity and ripe firm tannins to age, dark chocolate, mint, sage, some black plum, ripe raspberry and a touch of leather. Pair with grilled steak with chimichurri or roasted vegetables with rose harissa.
