Tasting- Chateau du Trignon Roussanne

Name: Chateau du Trignon Roussanne
Variety: Roussane
Region: Cotes du Rhone
Country: France
Year: 2012
Price: $18

Winery review: It's unusual to find 100% Roussane wines, but this is a terrific example at a realistic price. It's broad and mouth-coating but still seems fresh, with melon, pear and pineapple flavors that linger on the tightly focused finish. Drink over the next year or two. 

My review: This wine had a nice floral nose with main nodes of carnations. The mid pallet was bubbly and had strong grape nodes. The finish was very short but very dry. Overall this wine was enjoyable. 

I tried this wine without food.
