  Smooth, round, light pear and apple. Full mouthfeel and finish. Nicely put together

  Love Larry's unscrew-n-go wines! They're subtle, not in your face, yet full of passion and expression. The 13 Roussanne is aging into a real beauty! Creamy with almost an oily viscosity...a waxy softness of tropical and pitted fruits...yet lifted freshness of citrus acidity dances with the palate...even becoming a little spicy in the finish. Everything is subtle and in total balance...complexities of bit-o-honey, toasted marshmallow, candied pineapple...savory crushed minerals and lanolin. But what makes this wine, along with the pleasing texture, is the florals! White flowers, honeysuckle, peach blossom...even a little petrol funk to make it interesting! One of the top domestic Roussanne's made imo.

  Good body, good acidity, stone fruit on the palate. Better the first night when it was warmer (typical of Roussanne).

  Took out from cellar at about 55 F and poured into a decanter. The wine got more expressive as it sat in my glass. Very waxy, stone fruit, tropical fruit, and white flowers. The weight on this wine is serious and I like it a lot. Paired with curry shrimps.

  -- tasting note from Day 3 --
  -- tasted non-blind --
  
  NOSE: lightly minty school paste; banana leaf; not overtly fruity; slightly buttery; better as it warms to a cool room temperature.
  
  BODY: medium-full bodied; medium maize color.
  
  TASTE: lots of wooly mineral/hay; butter; slightly bitter --- aspirin; slight cotton candy note; low to medium-low acidity; 13.7% alc. just a tad noticeable on the finish; not a re-buy for me, but Ashley loves it.
