Top Notes For
Tom Casagrande

This is the Roussanne not the Albariño. Intense nose with loads of waxy lanolin scents, maybe beeswax, over lightly bruised orchard fruit. If this were served blind, I would almost certainly say Loire Chenin. Scents carry over to the palate. Decents acids for a Roussanne. Distinctive. Purchased at the winery 2 years ago.
