“Roussanne is a challenge to grow, and this winery made a few viticultural changes in its estate vineyard to address those challenges. In 2024 those changes paid off and resulted in a vibrant, textured wine. Harvested in mid-October at a relatively low Brix of 22.8, this Roussanne was barrel fermented and aged for 5 months in neutral French oak. Straw colored, it offers an attractive aroma of white peach with hints of ginger and jasmine for added intrigue. Medium-bodied and smooth in texture, the wine remains vibrant with rich flavors of peach and some honeyed notes. The finish is long and lively with some ginger spice showing up in the aftertaste.” 93, Norm Roby, WineReviewOnline.com
