Truchard Carneros Roussanne 2005 Wine Review (NW)

Note: 2003 label pictured is the same as the 2005

Tasting notes:

Pineapple, honey, and butterscotch on the nose

Full-bodied and richly textured

Nicely layered finish with apricot, honey, and fig

Here's a beautiful alternative to Chardonny when you want to go off the beaten path. This wine is full-bodied with terrific texture. The layers of fruit and honey are seamless.

It runs about $20 or so and is worth seeking out. This winery produces tremendous value in the bottle. Raise a glass!
