2022 Roussanne
The 2022 Roussanne shows exceptional depth with a precise, crystalline quality to the fruit, led by golden delicious apple, white peach, and preserved lemon. The nose reflects the nuance and elegance of the Golden Mile Bench, and is layered with complex notes of beeswax, brazil nuts, candied ginger, and honeysuckle. Aging in concrete for seven months has provided a rich, viscous texture, with notable fruit concentration on the palate that is reflective of low yields and meticulous vineyard management. The long, pithy finish is beautifully carried by crisp, refreshing acidity, which will provide the structure for this to continue to evolve in bottle over the next 5+ years.
