'03 Roussanne

'03 Roussanne Wine Details
Price: $30.00 per bottle

Description: The delicate, complex minerally palate follows a honeyed bouquet that has a reminder of Spring flowers. Something that will perk up a mid-winter white fish dish or develop into something even more glorious with 8-12 years cellaring - if able to resist.

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.
