Great bouquet and on the palate! Flowers, tropical fruits, salt taffy in an explosive, viscous mix. I think a few more years may add more even more layers. Excellent.

Despite the Stonecrusher moniker this wine is evolving towards classic Roussanne. Fairly explosive on the palate with citrus, tropical fruits with a medium-weight, oily mouthfeel. It does have a very minerally undercurrent to it, but it's not crushing in any way. This will get even better with age. For now, Very Good.

Very cloudy. Never really came together - it had a spritzy, lemony flavor that was somewhat appealing, but the overall package wasn't that delicious. Needed more time?

Dark yellow color. Honeyed, flowery nose. Oily, viscous mouthfeel. Good acidity mid-palate and honeyed, tropical fruit finish. Excellent.

Dour, clumsy, joyless wine.
