Among them is one white wine, the 2008 Chardonnay DuBrul Vineyard that was barrel-fermented and aged in neutral French oak. It offers up a pleasing nose of poached pear, apple, and baking spices. Medium-bodied with ample savory fruit and a firm acid structure, this moderately lengthy effort will drink nicely for several years but comes up short in depth, concentration, and complexity.
The stated aim of Owen Roe is ' to do cool climate viticulture in Yakima Valley'. Owen Roe's new releases are all good to excellent. There is a consistency of style within the Owen Roe portfolio. The aim is clearly to produce wines of elegance and finesse. However, to this taster it seems to be achieved at the expense of depth, concentration, and flavor interest.
