Burrowing Owl Estate Winery

Oliver - the Wine Capital of Canada offers the visitor a complete wine touring experience with 13 unique wineries located within a few kilometres of the town of Oliver. At Burrowing Owl, you can indulge all of your senses, starting with the stunning vista that greets you as you approach on Black Sage Road. Architect Robert MacKenzie has designed and sited the buildings to reflect the peaceful charm of this rare desert ecosystem. Superb wines are made almost entirely underground with state-of-the-art equipment, caves for ageing wines and a climatically controlled environment. Fine dining in the Sonora Room, seated beside full length French doors or on the patio, is an unhurried and memorable occasion not to be missed. Allow time for wine tasting, a guided or self-guided tour that takes you through the wine-making process and the ecological initiatives of the proprietors, a climb up to the viewing tower or a vineyard hike..

A luxurious 10-room Guest House with outdoor pool will open in 2006. Call the winery for details.
