GV $29 | 2021 Stolpman “Uni” Roussanne and Chardonnay Blend
Description
The Stolpman winery team is passionately committed to preserving this pristine environment for their vines. They employ conscious farming and dry farming techniques, and they wholeheartedly embrace sustainable employment practices. Inside the winery, their approach centers on respecting the natural essence of the grapes. They prioritize native fermentation and adopt a minimal manipulation approach, allowing the true character of the grapes to shine through.
Roussanne might be the richest, most decadent white grape in the world of wine. Ripe fruit intensity, and a coating, thick mid-palate deliver a hedonistic “wow” factor not often found in white wines.
Because Roussanne spends months ripening on the vine, slowly developing its signature flavor concentration, the tart acidity of the grape often dwindles by harvest time. At Stolpman, they decided zesty Chardonnay would be the perfect blending compliment. The Chardonnay lends a structured back-bone that refreshes the palate once the Roussanne’s up-front wave of flavor ebbs.
“Golden Pineapple, white flowers, and Asian pear backed by tangerine citrus. Delightful fuzziness all over from the nose through the mouth. Fresh, crunchy acidity compliments the full bodied richness of the mid-palate and provides a titillating cut under the fleshy, cloudy textures. It is rare to find so much zest and energy in such a coating white wine!”
