/2014 Troon Blue Label Longue Carabine, Applegate Valley
$29
A creative co-ferment of grapes native to the South of France:Marsanne 43.81%, Viognier 27.35%, Vermentino 12.65%, Riesling 8.79%, Roussanne 5.0%, Sauvignon Blanc 2.4%; farmed to savor the natural attributes of granitic soils, washed down the mountains covered in Madrone, Oak and Ponderosa pine. Full bodied and exotic, this is a substantial wine, but it’s still balanced with the bracing acidity you would expect from Oregon. The aromas and flavors are laced with hints of honeysuckle and ripe peaches. An ideal match for roast chicken, veal and cheeses. For those that love the exotic, lush and complex white blend of the southern Rhône Valley will adore Longue Carabine.
