The Cowhorn Marsanne Roussanne 2014 overflows with fresh fruit flavor. This white wine is a blend of Roussanne and Marsanne wines, and the combination results in an opulent mixture of aromas and flavors. The nose and palate show fresh apples and apricots, crisp pea pods, and grapefruit. Crafted with the spirit of Mosel Riesling in mind, a hint of diesel mingles with these flavors and accents a harmonizing streak of acidity. A touch of barrel aging adds some body and grip to this white wine, perfecting the balance of flavor and texture.
