That’s been our covenant to you, the people who support our winemaking.”

Roussanne Marsanne Pepper Ann

TASTING NOTES:
“…this wine showcases stonefruit such as peach and apricot along with honeysuckle, nectarine, nutmeg and vanilla. The entrance is round and succulent with a rich mid-palate that coats the mouth. The finish features balanced acidity with freshness and length.“ (AbV 14%, 60% Roussanne 30% Marsanne 10% Viognier)

BARRELS: 7 months sur lie in French oak, 35% new.

TANGENTIALLY RELATED MUSIC to listen to in anticipation of this wine:

PAIRS WITH (winery recommended): The usual fare, it’s pretty food friendly.

OR (really-going-with-the-theme-option): Watching a 16-years-old video upload of the theme song to a lesser-known 26-year-old cartoon.
