Not ever sure why the 61 vintage sells at or even above Petrus price as I've never had it but rest of the old vintages are just lovely and relatively a bargain! This bottle had all the nuances and elegance of a fine lady at ease with oneself. Love it! — 10 years ago
100% Syrah - Red Willow Vineyard - juicy tannins, lots of dark fruit, coats the mouth, peppery on the back with a contemplative finish. Will buy again. — 11 years ago
Unforgettable taste. Like a young naughty young lady. It offers a refreshing black berry and green citrus? Notes. It's as distinctive as if its just picked and washed. U tasted the freshness and the earthy sun. It's spontaneous energy as if it fits rightly in the hand of a young lady spending the afternoon by herself either reading the book or just hanging around in the library in a breezy summer afternoon. — 13 years ago
Vintage 2007 - autumn leaves, mocca, mushrooms, cedar, mature Lady from curious #carignano grape. Absolutely a wine with elegance. But nowhere middle of the road 😯 authentic beauty from #sardinia — 8 years ago
Super creamy, and mouthfilling notes of lady apple, citrus fruits, white flowers and star fruits — 8 years ago
Strawberry jam essence followed by a hint of dustiness on the nose. The open is soft with some light tannins. — 9 years ago
Nutty and warm bread notes on first wiff, baked apple and pear follow nicely. Rich round mouthfeel gives a touch of lively medium acidity and ties the mirroring nose and palate together with a warm vanilla finish that lingers seductively like perfume in a room moments after a lady departs. ( probably my cheesiest description yet! 😜) — 10 years ago
An elegant, feminine style, lovely smoky pencil lead and cassis jam, touches of tobacco leaf and root beer. Elegant and mineral, med+ weight, plenty of smoky dark fruit and lead, reasonable acidity and very supple, refined tannin. Easygoing on the finish, a classy lady for the medium term. — 11 years ago
My palate was perfectly primed for this experience...finally! The lady of Gramenon has slapped me in the face with her mineral wand many a time and I have loved it, but this was what I was always looking for. Had all the good characteristics of a very well aged soft warm voluptuous Chateauneuf with a SICK mineral streak for support and depth. That mineral streak has always fucked me up in the past, overpowering my mouth and blocking me from orgasm with this wine. This time we both win. — 11 years ago

Purchased this 2008 Owen Roe Syrah about 7 years ago from Atlantic Wine, a sort of innocuous wine merchant in North Buckhead Atlanta. I do remember it shared a building with an upscale outdoors outfitter (Yeti, Patagonia, North Face, etc...) along with a large Goodwill Store/Donation Center. I always kick myself for not going in that Goodwill, and imagine it was an treasure trove of never used luxury camping gear. Instead, I opted for whatever mix of First Growth Bordeaux was in stock at Atlantic, which inevitably left me a bottle short of a 10% discount, thus resulting in this purchase, and later to be stashed away in the back and bottom of the cellar. I had completely forgot about this ghost bottle until tonight. Despite the wax seal, I still was slightly concerned that it might be past its prime, so I pulled the cork... An exotic, but pure cacao that’s pleasantly unforgiving, and cautiously allows in some lush blueberry compote, along with finocchiona rolled in fresh cracked pepper with thyme, tarragon, and lavender. Could certainly last another 5-7 years, but it’s too stunningly beautiful now to resist. — 8 years ago
Great lazy summer day drinking kind of wine. It is refreshing, the flavour isn't too bold, not to sweet and goes down smooth. Cute name too and beautiful blush colour. — 9 years ago

2006 vintage - from an Australian perspective, hard to come to grips with the concept of aged SB, but here it is. This is good, actually really good - very Loire IMO — 11 years ago
