This is quite pretty, with a soft initial entry into strawberry fruit. There's a touch of resin, a whisper of chocolate, and overall a delicate sensibility, that gains strength and length with ample aeration. It exits smoothly with a finishing lick of caramel.

Silky and smooth, this is loaded with effusive cherry fruit and scents of perfumed cherry blossoms. It's open and warm and packed with red fruits, and is the most accessible of the Owen Roe 2006 Pinots. Enjoy it for its forward fruit and immediate pleasures.
