| Burrowing Owl, wisely, has been a leader in solar energy in BC's wine scene for the past 12 years. Their Pinot is a popular choice among Vintages customers, who appreciate its forward cherry and berry fruit, approachable texture and impressive balance. Savour this wine with grilled turkey or duck in a reduction of blackberry, red wine and herbs. |
