Winemaker Notes
Marsanne is an intriguing Rhône varietal and is exciting to work with; responding particularly well to gentle, modern winemaking techniques. Its flavors tend towards delicacy with its crisp acidity enhanced by cold-fermentation. We were able to blend in an additional Roussanne as is the tradition of the northern Rhône's greatest whites. Lightly chilled, our 1998 Marsanne will beautifully accompany shellfish - especially raw oysters with lemon--and richer dishes such as rabbit in a white wine and butter sauce.
