Michael Hall Roussanne 2021

Packs in lots of flavour, white flesh pear, some quince, good candied citrus character and a very faint marzipan note and finishes puckering and beautifully chalky. There is plenty going on here, lots to enjoy, interesting and delicious.

The Roussanne grape owes its name to the reddish or russet bloom it develops on its skin as it reaches full maturity. Hand picked on 24th February, pressed and wild yeast fermented. Matured on lees for nine months in tank and barrel (Damy, 33% new oak). Fined, filtered and bottled.
