Second Tier Labels
Hey Everyone!
It seems that several wineries are bringing out second labels. I was at Yokes in the Spokane Valley yesterday and saw that they are carrying several wines that are produced by Owen-Roe. I bought one, called "Lenore", which is a syrah. (Haven't opened it yet). There were also 3 more wines under a different name that the sign said were produced by Owen Roe. I also received an e-mail from Cougar Crest announcing a new label called "Walla Walla River Winery" that is based out of their old airport tasting room.
Is anyone familiar with any of these particular wines, or any other second labels popping up? The labels aren't always clear about who is making them, but if I can find a wine for $10-$15 made by the Cougar Crest or Owen-Roe team that is anywhere near the quality of their regular wines, I want to know! I am sure that many others would like to know as well.
If you have any info, please spread the wealth!
