The Rise of Roussanne – The Daily Meal

The Austin Hope is day bright and a deep gold color (the depth of the gold hue may be partly accounted for by its age, although it is the winery’s current release). In the nose the wine is more subdued than expected. There are cling peaches and a hint of smokiness. On the palate it is a different story. There is ripe grapefruit, mango, baked apple, a pronounced phenolic backbone, medium plus acid and a medium fruit-driven finish. This is a well-made New World example of roussanne.
