Barrel Selection Roussanne 2016

*Price per six bottle case

This branded Roussanne put Sainte Rose on the map. A hugely successful barrel fermented and barrel aged white wine that oozes complexity and elegance. At Sainte Rose we love this Rhone Valley grape variety and have worked hard to promote its use as a single varietal.

The roussanne grapes that produced this wine were picked during the night in order to protect the fruit from the extreme heat of the day. This wine underwent fermentation and ageing in French oak barrels with frequent stirring of the lees to create a rich, complex, full-bodied roussanne with good acidity and a luxurious finish.

  • Colour: Golden yellow
  • Nose: An exotic mix of fruit and spice. The freshness of the fruit provides hints of melon and the barrel aging has created vanilla notes and a smoky richness. Palate: Full-bodied with creamy, nutty characteristics and an extremely long finish.
  • Drink: Now until 2026
