Roussanne

Reserve Roussanne Wine Details
Price: $20.00 per bottle

Description: An intoxicating aroma of pear, ripe peach and leeche nut with tropical nuances radiate from the glass and invade the senses. Ripe peach and pear flavors dominate the palate with hints of leeche nut and tropical fruits adding to the complexity of the wine. The bright acidity balances beautifully with the fruit to leave your palate refreshed and invigorated.

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.
