2016 Roussanne

2016 Roussanne

This wine is aromatically driven by intense stone fruit intermixed with citrus and floral notes. The nose offers melon and kiwi fruits and is supplemented with compelling subtle saline and mineral aromas.  In the mouth, bright acidity compliments flavors of Asian pear, lime zest and lemongrass, while finishing dry with firm tannins.

Review by Stephen Tanzer for Vinous, October 2017:

Full deep yellow. Intense stone fruits, menthol, lemon grass and flowers on the nose, plus a suggestion of candied fruits. Smooth, generous and impressively concentrated, with its intense stone fruit, pear, lemon and lime zest flavors perfectly framed by fresh acidity. Bone-dry, beautifully restrained wine without any impression of warmth to blur its focus. Finishes firm and very long.
