Description

"A Rhone blend from Ravensworth's Estate vineyards, consisting of Viognier (48%), Marsanne (32%), and Roussanne (20%). Fruit was destemmed and pressed to 600L demi muids for fermentation and resting in the first year. It was then transferred to 200Ll foudre for second year.

Aromatically, the wine leads with yellow peach, pineapple and star anise; in the background, there's a suggestion of mineral turpentine layered with white tea, sweet mint and brine. In the mouth, the wine speaks of its élevage, with toasted nuts in profusion, intermingled with white chocolate, flowers and really great length. While I may comment that the oak is pronounced here, the wine is complex, long, layered and powerful. It has really great shape and length. It's very good, a wine for the future. It has an attractive Rhône Valley stamp. 12.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap." Erin Larkin, The Wine Advocate 94 points.
