(2082 views) | | | Tasted by winecast on 3/16/2011 & rated 88 points: Golden yellow in color with aromas of pear, honey, green tea and oak toast. Rich and oily in the mouth with green apple, orange and butterscotch flavors finishing with a nutty note and good acidity. A well made Roussanne that will continue to be interesting for some time to come. (4527 views) | | | Tasted by Katiedid on 9/25/2010 & rated 84 points: This was a nice surprise. Full flavour, dry, and not fruity. (3082 views) | | | Tasted by sleepyhaus on 4/17/2010: Very nice white. Rich but still a little bit crisp and overall nicely refreshing. This was impressive enough to make me look into more roussanne. Went well with a very good caesar at Pi. (4289 views) | | | Tasted by chiliman96 on 4/26/2009 & rated 84 points: aftertaste a little bitter; astringent; may be going through an awkward stage; opened to young perhaps; (3222 views) | | | Tasted by tenorselbow on 3/23/2009 & rated 88 points: Fresh nose of caramel apple. A mouth of apple, butterscotch, tutti-frutti and passionfruit and melted butter texture. Medium-length finish with good acid, imitation banana and a touch of licorice. (2658 views) |
| Writer's Block Producer websiteRoussanne Wikipedia | Varietal character (Appellation America)USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson North CoastThe North Coast American Viticultural Area (AVA) in California, covering more than three million acres, includes Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake counties, and portions of Marin and Solano counties.
