Peaches, beeswax, with great acidity. Very pleasing Roussane.

Maybe my second favorite Roussanne from CA, always gets the structure and savory quality right. There is fruit, but that is not what this wine is about. Will hold for a few more years, easily. 🌿🌰🔋

Wow. Gorgeous well balanced. Bright acidity. Peppery and with a hint of sugar.
