Description:
An exciting addition to our Rhône portfolio, Roussanne is a native of the Northern Rhône Valley. In our quest to become the premier Rhône producer of California, we decided to expand by introducing another white wine to our growing line of Rhône-style wines. Aromatic with notes of melon, quince, citrus and mineral. The mouthfeel is creamy, enhanced by partial malolactic fermentation with flavors of stone fruits, melon and flint. This is a very different white wine from the others we produce, with rich aromas and mouthfeel but a crisp finish.

Varietal Definition
Roussanne:
Also known as Bergeron in the french Savoie region. Semi-classic grape grown in the Hermitage-Rhone and southern Cotes du Rhone region of France. Still occasionally incorporated into white wine blends, (e.g: with the Marsanne grape wine), because of its acidity and aroma but finding less and less favor.
