Nice mouthfeel, but I'm still not a Roussanne fan. Had hoped this blend would be the one to turn the corner for me as I like other wines of theirs- and I liked this in the tasting room. Maybe it should be had right away? Not bad, but not making me want to buy it again esp. at price point.

Lovely aromatics typical of these Rhone blends. Honeysuckle, peach and so on. Palate is weighty without being too alcoholic--probably the Roussanne. Little oak influence. Could use a little more acidity and length on the finish for my taste. Very good wine.

Really had held up well. A bit darker in the bottle but still great grape flavors on the palate.

Mature white Rhone. Full bodied wine with notes of peach and carmel.

A Roussanne dominant WRB. Very nice, well-rounded with hints of herbs--this winery in the DCV is also an organic farm.
