Wine Details
Price:
$35.00 per bottle
Description:
The 2005 is a blend of 60% Marsanne and 40% Roussanne picked in the fourth week of October and the second week of November! The wine was co-fermented using only indigenous yeast in two neutral barrels and underwent 100% malo-lactic fermentation. The wine was raised for 11 months in neutral French oak barrels and was bottled unfined and unfiltered. The 2005 Marsanne/Roussanne is floral with notes of clover honey, mango, orange zest, mascarpone and poached pears. The mouth feel is silky with medium weight and low alcohol. There is impeccable balance on the palate with a clear mineral, limestone and chalk streak that comes to the fore in the mid-palate and persists in the finish. The result is a harmonious and elegant blend. Marsanne/Roussanne evolves considerably in the bottle as you age it. If you decide to drink when young, please decant for a few minutes and serve at cellar temperature to capture its full charm and complexity.
