Roussanne

2012 Temecula Valley Roussanne

The Roadrunner Ridge Winery Roussanne from the 2012 vintage is a delightful white wine hailing from the picturesque Temecula Valley. This captivating wine presents a medium body, striking a wonderful balance between richness and refreshment. With a high level of acidity, it invigorates the palate, offering a lively mouthfeel that beckons a second sip. The fruit intensity showcases prominent notes of stone fruits, particularly ripe peach and apricot, accentuated by a hint of floral undertones that add complexity. The wine is beautifully dry, making it an excellent companion for various dishes. Its well-integrated structure showcases soft tannins that provide just enough support without overshadowing the luscious fruit flavors, resulting in a clean and refreshing finish that lingers pleasantly.

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
