✨ Tekniske specifikationer

Ex Umbris, translating from Latin as 'Out of the Shadows,' is a dramatic and expressive Syrah that beautifully showcases the rugged terroir of Washington's Columbia Valley. The name historically references the wine's resilience and its ability to emerge triumphantly from challenging growing conditions, capturing the dark, mysterious, and deeply concentrated nature of Pacific Northwest Syrah. Sourced from premier, sun-drenched vineyards in the Yakima Valley and broader Columbia Valley, the grapes undergo gentle fermentation in small open-top fermenters before aging in French oak barrels. This meticulous, low-intervention approach coaxes out the grape's signature savory complexity, yielding a wine defined by dark fruit, exotic spices, and a distinct earthy undertone that has made it a benchmark for Washington Syrah.

🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten

Owen Roe blev grundlagt i 1999 af vinmageren David O'Reilly og Jerry McNally med en klar ambition om at skabe terroir-drevne vine i verdensklasse fra de ypperste vinmarker i Pacific Northwest. Vingården er opkaldt efter den irske 1600-tals-patriot Owen Roe O'Neill og råder over egne faciliteter samt opkøber druer på tværs af både Columbia Valley og Yakima Valley i Washington samt Willamette Valley i Oregon. Owen Roe arbejder ud fra en filosofi om minimal indgriben, hvor nænsom vinfremstilling og en velafbalanceret fadlagring bringer det unikke særpræg frem fra berømte marker som DuBrul, Red Willow og Union Gap. Huset er særligt anerkendt for sine nuancerede enkeltmarks-vine på Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah og Cabernet Franc samt populære og karakterfulde blends som Sinister Hand, Ex Umbris og Abbot's Table.
