Description

SORRY! We are all SOLD OUT of this Iridesse favorite! Try the really yummy 2005 Albariño!

So you don’t like white wine? Try the refreshing complexity of Roussanne. Full-bodied, rich, yet fresh and interesting, Roussanne has fast become one of our favorites. Originally from the Rhone valley of France, ours comes from one of the most pedigreed growers in the Russian River Valley. Its skin is actually a russet that turns ruddy before the harvest. Its golden nectar is gently released in the press before going directly into French Oak barrels for 14 months. This layering of flavors: honeysuckle, apricot, pear, toasty baguette and hints of crème bruleé, make Roussanne and interesting wine to pair with a variety of foods or enjoy a glass - or three - just ‘cause.

95% Roussane, Russian River Valley
5% Viognier, Russian River Valley
