I think I paid $14 for this, and I think it is outstanding. It has such depth and complexity. A trace of sweetness balanced by nice acidity on the posterior palate with a fruit salad that explodes in your mouth. One thing I find is that inexpensive wines frequently lack character. This has tons. What a pleasure.

2012 McPherson Texas High Plains Roussanne. Aromatic and lush with notes of Asian pear, apricot skin, pineapple and honeysuckle blossom. Round and smooth texture. Quite good. #wine #texas #txwine #roussanne

I enjoy the fruity character and I found I like it best when served at 43F. Tastes crisp rather than acidic.

Ok, I give up, this is good. 3rd bottle, consistent. Honeyed melon. Nectar.
