Stolpman Vineyard Roussanne

JWC founded by Craig Jaffurs, known for his Rhone blends, & released his first commercial wine in 1994. Craig turned the business over to Dan & Janelle Green in 2016. This is made with 100% Roussanne, which is a bit unusual as there is usually a blend. 100% of the Roussanne is aged on French oak (12% new), reflecting aromas of tropical fruit, floral and notes of honey. On the palate pineapple and apricot with bright acidity and a touch of citrus spice. Medium finish, elegant, ending with a gentle sweetness. Very nice! Tasting Sample!

Funky and fun wine with a good balance between drive and body. Loads of goat cheese on the nose.

Clean & pristine. Honeysuckle.

Stone-fruity and floral in a very light style.

I always love this wine

Uncharacteristically flat and dull. No stuffing whatsoever, like drinking rose water.

Super fun wine.

2011 vintage - still delicate and light on its feet despite a richly structured backbone. Notes of white flowers, tropical fruits, and a faint hint of petrol.

#WhoIsRuben event honoring Ruben Solorzano. Three different versions of Stolpman Roussanne being poured today, all killing it on a hot day. Jaffurs version poured by Co-winemaker Matt Brady.

We love Rousanne! This one from Jaffurs is nice and clean with white flower and hints of lychee. Nice balance too.
