What the Critics say
Bright yellow. Ripe citrus and orchard fruits and a hint of honeysuckle on the fragrant nose. Juicy and seamless in texture, showing strong lift and cut to the fresh Meyer lemon and yellow apple flavors. Finishes on a refreshingly bitter peach pit note, displaying firm bite and strong, mineral-driven persistence. Drink: 2019-2022 (May18)

The Roussanne is sourced from vineyards in Chavanay and in St. Michel sur Rhone, essentially granite-infused soils. The fermentations (alcoholic and malolactic) are done in stainless steel; then, the wine is racked into a mix of barrels and stainless steel cuves for a six-month elevage before bottling.
