Another wine from our Friday night gathering we opened the 2012 Owen Roe Red Wine a Bordeaux land of 36% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Malbec.
On the nose there was dark fruit, black cherry, blackberry, black currant, dark chocolate, dried herbs, spice and a good earthy component.
On the palate was dark cherry, blackberry, green bell pepper, black currant, violets, a touch of sweetness and some earth.
This wine is full bodied with medium + acidity and medium + sandpaper tannins that lead into a long dark fruit finish. The weekend is upon us so enjoy your wine and please be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

French oak. 20% new, the rest neutral. 20 mos in oak. Big and full still showing a good amount of oak, albeit somewhat restrained for this region, varietal and style. Round and flavorful. Great meat wine.

If you like balanced, modern, right bank Bordeaux there's a good chance you'd like this. Nice now. Better still 2020-2035

Very nice example of Washington State!
Bordeaux style red with power and a great finish. Our first time to this winery, and all the wines were tasty.
