Covert Farms Grand Reserve Roussanne 2017
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis roussanne comes off their estate's certified organic Coyote Block, and was planted in 2007. This had a month long fermentation, followed by 10 months' rest on lees, in neutral French oak. Subtle fragrant ginger and star anise spicing runs throughout, weaving through pear, apricot, yellow apple on a sleek, tart palate, finishing with some warming spices. Showing its age, this is best enjoyed now.Tasted: 12 June 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $43.90 | 750ml | winery online/direct |
