12/4/10: This is a nice everyday Chardonnay. It's bright and juicy. It doesn't hit it out of the park, but will work well with food and isn't overpriced. "nuff said. 87
9/23/10: I was impressed with this, considering the $12 price point. It's clean and bright. There's nice fruit here, in a refreshing and unoaked style. Good value. 87
My least favorite of the three value wines I tried from Owen Roe. Bright, fruit forward style. A little bit too much in your face. This is fine, it's just that there are a lot of producers doing this, and usually for less money. 86-87
Maybe this needs a little more time. I'm not sure of the release date. Nice fruit. Medium bodied. Made in a light juicy style. I'm just not sure of the price point here.
I couldn't really focus on this as much as I wished as I was in some annoying company. However, this showed great fruit on a medium bodied palate. I agree with another TN in that it's nice that the more expensive bottlings are just more extraced and richer. Very nice. 90-91

Medium bodied. Has some apples. Richer style, but very clean. This is tasty stuff.

Medium bodied. Good fruit. Nice structure. Solid cab, and at a good price. I like the structure here, this ain't no fruit bomb. 87-88
