Review: Excellent value Cabernet from Owen Roe. David O'Reilly strikes again: great value, great wine. The first thing I wrote was "better and cheaper?" and I ought to stick with it. That's right - Washington's best value Cab just got...better. The Sharecropper's Cab is full of purple fruit goodness complemented by the exuberant tannins. And the price? Under $15. - Marcus Sharecropper's is the label for wines produced in close collaboration with specific vineyards. David O'Reilly had a brilliant idea, to join with his favorite vineyards in making reasonably priced Northwest wines. 2007 Vintage Owen Roe Sharecroppers Cabernet 07 has smoky blackberry and dark cherry aromas that leap out, signaling the showiness of this young Cabernet. Packed with juicy black fruit flavors--especially cassis--this is a big mouthful of Cab, with dried herbs and earth on the slightly chewy finish. David O'Reilly strikes again: great value, great wine. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, David O'Reilly describes this as a very concentrated wine with flavors of cassis, blackberry, and a hint of juniper. The yield was down for the 2006 vintage, meaning less wine, but a more concentrated wine. Made from Elerding and Alderdale Vineyards in the Yakima Valley, there's also a bit of Red Willow Vineyard fruit in the wine. The wine is ready to drink, and David says: "It will blow you away". |
