Hailing from a large family in Ireland, David O’Reilly has been working with wine for over thirty years. In addition to making Pinot Noir in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, David is also passionate about winemaking in the Yakima Valley of Eastern Washington State. For O’Reilly, this region presents the new world with an outstanding opportunity to create wines that show old world expression. His Owen Roe brand was established using images associated with the iconic Confederate Owen Roe O’Neil, who helped rally the Irish against the English Parliamentary forces. Drink in this lively episode with the delightful David O’Reilly and find out why there is a severed hand on his label!
