Burrowing Owl, Sauvignon Blanc, Okanagan Valley

So....quite impressed here...after having reviewed the 2021 just over a year ago. On nose: fresh lime peel and green peach. On palate: above flavour notes enhanced, with a light presence of vanilla/ oak, lively stony minerality, sea salt and chalk ...fresh, vibrant , bolstered by still youthful acidity.....hard to believe this is nearly 10 years old. Light ring gold in the glass...an orphan bottle at my wine merchant's....a cross between Loire/ Napa.

some green peppers on the nose but also smells a bit sweaty Some leesy notes or might be oak which give it a certain roundness but generally a bit underpowered

Very positively surprised and first try of Canadian wine. Perfect on this evening and far better than most of recent Whit wine. Bit of mineral and full bodied and hint of oak vanilla
