2018 Roussanne
RED MOUNTAIN AVA
Light honey colored in appearance, 2018 Roussanne shows aromas of cantaloupe, peach and nectarine, tempered by appealing savory notes of salinity and cucumber skin. Lively and bright on the palate, fruit flavors are dominated by pear and green apple, with key lime to add interest. Some extended lees contact contributes a hint of creamy brioche character, adding body and sweetness to the finish, all wrapped in firm tannin.
