66. Burrowing Owl Estate Winery 2010 Cabernet Franc, Okanagan Valley, $33
One of the most beautiful and progressive operations on the West Coast is Burrowing Owl — a winery, restaurant, lodge and vineyard on the spectacular Black Sage Bench of the southern Okanagan Valley of British Columbia. Cab Franc is a signature wine, and this is among the best we’ve tasted. Aromas of raspberry weave together with cherry and dried herbs, followed by vivacious flavors of red and black fruit and crushed leaf. This is a classic.
