Barrel Selection Stellenbosch Roussanne
Interesting. Alcohol is a bit prominent, oak a bit pronounced and there's a very evident lactic quality to it. The grape's usual delicate jasmine tea aromatics are a bit muted amidst all the richness. Which all sounds like pejoratives but, in the end, the wine itself is voluptuous and delicious and quite more-ish so goes to show it's the end result rather than dogmatic ideals that really matter with wine.

Dec 10th, 2017Fat and oily initially but tightens up with air. Very rich, almost a meal on its own. A white wine for red wine drinkers which calls for food.

Jun 1st, 202215/20 (85/100) Вино с ароматами тыквенных семечек, лимонного сока и яблок. Довольно тельное и кислотное с ощутимой спиртуозностью во вкусе. Тяжелое вино, не оценил.
