| 2005 Owen Roe Sharecroppers Cabernet Sauvignon | 750 ML | $19.99 | The 2005 Owen Roe Sharecropper’s label has been a great hit and this dynamite Cabernet Sauvignon is a great successor to last year’s version. With an oversupply of grapes, they decided to put some excess first-rate fruit into neutral barrels and essentially split the profits with the vineyards. This label hearkens to the spirit of the old sharecropping ideal of a partnership between landowners and the laborers who toil producing the crops. Most of the fruit for the Cabernet Sauvignon is from Dr. Steve Elerding’s Six Prong Vineyard in Alderdale, Washington. The wine is plush and forward with fresh berry notes, this wine promises excellent cellaring potential. Owen Roe Winemaker: David O’Reilly | http://www.owenroe.com |
