Founded in 1999 by David and Angelica O'Reilly, Owen Roe crafts wines that speak directly from the land. Spanning two of the Pacific Northwest's most distinctive regions—from Washington's sun-drenched Yakima Valley to the cool, elevated vineyards of Oregon's Willamette Valley—the winery partners with exceptional vineyard sites to create wines of place and purpose. Owen Roe's winemaking philosophy is rooted in restraint and respect. The team believes the winemaker's highest calling is to listen: to the soil, the vintage, the vines themselves. Through careful, minimalist intervention, they allow each site's unique character—its geology, microclimate, and spirit—to shine through in the glass.
Corvidae Wine Co. is the second, value-driven label from Owen Roe, which is dedicated to crafting exceptional wines that represent the diverse terroir of Washington’s Yakima Valley and Colombia Valley. The name "Corvidae" is Latin for the crow family, and the labels often feature crow-related names like "Rook," "Lenore," and "Mirth," referencing themes in folklore and literature.
