2007 Preston Vineyard Marsanne
“The opportunity for a winemaker to produce a wine from a grape varietal that has fascinated him for such a long time is one thing. But to try and produce a wine that shares characteristics with the great wines of amazing wineries such as JL Chave, M. Chapoutier, and Domaine Des Remizières from Hermitage is another feat. We are very fortunate to have found a Marsanne vineyard planted in very well-drained rocky soil that lends itself to producing wines with a very nice mineral Tasting Notes Rich, with plenty of depth, this wine contains the element of ripe peaches at its center, but is balanced with minerality. Ripe stone fruit and citrus blossom waft placidly in the glass and a classic hint of bitter almond rounds out the creamy finish. Big and racy, its acidity avoids the heaviness that can be associated with Marsanne from warmer climates.
