Doyenne Roussanne

Doyenne Roussanne Wine Details
Price: $30.00 per bottle

Description: The vibrant honeysuckle, lime, and delicate white flowers express a very pretty bouquet in this wine. It is delicious with rich, plush flavors of lime and passion fruit that spread across the palate to a powerful and long finish. This is a classic Roussanne with no oak to get in the way of all of the delicate, elegant and fragrant nuances.

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.
