2012 Donkey & Goat Roussanne Stone Crusher

Orange-tinted yellow. Ripe pit and citrus fruit aromas are complicated by an array of floral and spice notes, with a hint of honey in the background. Offers fleshy, chewy nectarine and orange pith flavors, a touch of dried fig and an enlivening kick of minerality. Powerful but surprisingly energetic, with very good finishing cling and floral-driven persistence.
