Owen Roe, Yakima Valley (Washington) 2018

By Miranda Franco

 This young Grenache blend opens with an alluring combination of bright raspberry, herbal tea, and cedar aromas.  The palate is plush with a medium body, smooth tannins, and a slightly spicy finish.  The blend is comprised of Grenache 55%, Syrah 19%, Mourvèdre 17%, and 9% Cinsault.  The herbal and spice undertones complement the raspberry and pomegranate flavors.  It’s juicy and savory with loads of freshness — a thoroughly delicious wine.
