Carneros Roussanne
Apple, pithy lemon, honey, buttery oak and hints of stone fruit. Good acidity and balance.

Sep 30th, 2015Aromatic and bright on the nose with apricot, pineapple, dried chrysanthemum, fresh herbs, and touch of vanilla. Some dried fruits characters on the very supple almost oily yet lively palate. Candied long finish.
Can new world Roussane be better than this?!

Dumb phase for this vintage is over. If you have it drink it

Jan 30th, 2022Phenomenal. The only reason I don't give it a ten is because I haven't drink enough white wine to feel worthy of scoring a perfect 10

Jun 16th, 2016A nice offering of this Rhone grape. Really great nose of white flowers and stone fruit. The only negative is the oak undertones, a tad too much for what I like with this grape. However it is balance, my negative is just a personal preference

Apr 18th, 2016Loved this (my first taste of this grape!). Lots of full perfumy ripe yellow fruit for me and toasted almonds. Soft mouthfeel and balanced acidity.

Jan 26th, 2016Fantastic QPR. Floral and nectarine notes coat the tongue with lots of shaved pencil and grassy notes taking on secondary flavors. The finish is long with tangerine characteristics.

Dec 30th, 2015Man o man, I'm loving these southern French grapes. This CA take is great. Melon, some minerality, food friendly acidity...great in the mouth.
