Owen Roe Ex Umbris Syrah 2020
The 2020 Ex Umbris greets your nose with cranberries and a hint of minerality. As you sip, the lingering aromas fade into fresh raspberries and blueberries on the palate. A subtle dash of white pepper and cigar notes follow the fruit to the mid-palate. The structured yet smooth tannins make this wine perfect for drinking now or aging for a few years.

| Made from 100% Syrah, the 2020 Ex Umbris begins with a dark-fruited and ripe frame of black cherry, red and black spices and a dusty and floral edge with notions of smoked plums and blackberry skin. Medium to full-bodied, the wine offers dusty tannins with elements of savory herbs before ending with a food-friendly finish. Enjoy with BBQ and flame-kissed meats. |

| Aromas of cherry, suede and sage. Vivid and full-bodied on the palate with a lovely nutty, poppy-seed note coming through. Charcoal and earth, too. Velvety tannins. |
