Moon Curser Roussanne Marsanne 2019

Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis classic Rhone blend made its return to Moon Curser in 2019, with 70% roussanne and 30% marsanne, sourced from the Osoyoos east bench. It is whole-cluster-pressed and fermented warm in stainless before resting in 25% new French oak / 75% stainless for four months, with regular bâtonnage. Rich, ripe, and heady, as is the Moon Curser style, weighs the palate with heavy oak spice, vanilla, peach pie, baked pear, expressive white florals creamed butter. It's hard to make out the varieties through the treatment, but if you're looking for a rich, buttery, low acid white, give this a try.Tasted: 14 December 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
