Saturday, June 3, 2023 - 70% Roussanne, 30% Chardonnay.
Color/App: medium/deep yellow/gold core with medium + viscosity. Bouquet of Acacia flower, ginger, grapefruit, melon, honeysuckle and oak. Full bodied with spicy and savoury notes. Yellow apple, ginger and honey again, along with a distinct minerality and a touch of bitters. I find the acid level acceptable and the finish seems moderately long. A really interesting wine with the Roussanne taking the (flavour) wheel of control. I admire the spice and ginger elements & agree with others that this would pair nicely with sushi. I'd opt for drinking this within the next couple of years.
