Roussanne – 2014; Torr Na Lochs; Burnet, Texas


Going back the first wines produced by a winery is always a special treat. Sourced from the Oswald Family Vineyards in the Texas High Plains AVA, this five-year-old Roussanne can still hold its own.  Made in stainless steel, the deep lemon color is a testament to how enduring this wine is and its structure.  There is still some good acidity to it in addition to the hallmark buttery notes associated with wines from this varietal.  Kiwi flavors are the strongest impressions you’ll get on your palate. It pairs well with a variety of seafood, vegetarian and poultry dishes and is equally enjoyable on its own. This wine could still cellar nicely for a few more years. Well done Torr Na Lochs on this one. Cheers!
