Pineapple upside down cake, smarties, lime zest. Weighty but not oily. Long finish.

Very expressive wine. Grilled pineapple, ripe mango, roasted walnut, vanilla and honey. Overwhelmingly ripe tropical fruit character without feeling lush, textured and rich without feeling heavy. It’s a decidedly zaftig wine with a lot of true Roussane character, but executed with the typical restraint that I’ve noted in virtually all of the Red Car wines.

2012 Red Car Roussane purchased on release from the winery. Cork pulled today over Dim Sum in SF with friends.
Soft & feminine. Showing its gentle acidity and sweeping broad strokes of viscosity and texture. A treat with 5 yrs age. Dumpling killer. Colonel of the egg custard tarts.

Tropical and lovely, the 2013 is carrying a few mixed nuts with it, but great summer cool day white.

Rousanne is my new Thanksgiving tradition. Cantaloupe melon and a rich, oily texture that screams for turkey.

Crisp, clean & cleansing wine...little honey...little floral. Nice varietal to sip for food pairings. Drank with Ramen Gaijin noodles...yum...perfect.
