Description

Roussanne is a delicate, late-ripening grape that, with a little care and patience, makes a beautifully aromatic and full-bodied wine. Our 2021 Roussanne, sourced from SIP Certified Camp Four Vineyard, is a golden straw color in the glass with an alluring bouquet of ripe stone fruits, hints of honeysuckle and citrus, and delicate floral undertones. The palate offers a harmonious balance of luscious fruit, a touch of vanilla and bright acidity leading to a crisp, vibrant finish.

The 2021 Roussanne's bright acidity, balanced fruit profile, and subtle oak nuances make it a versatile wine for food pairings. Try it with grilled or pan-seared scallops, roast chicken, creamy mushroom risotto or soft cheeses. 

Wine Critic Reviews
"Hints of toast, tangerine and daffodil draw the nose into this bottling. The palate is full flavored yet the texture remains medium to light, offering salted preserved-lemon and melon flavors." ~ Wine Enthusiast "…a powerful, expressive white that shows the more savory, earthy side of the variety off to great effect. Dried lemon peel, chamomile and crushed flowers all open in this understated wine, all framed by a hint of reduction that provides the close." ~ Antonio Galloni's Vinous
