VITICULTURAL ANALYSIS
Roussanne is a white wine variety originally from the Rhône region in France. It’s known for its Russet colour grape, intrinsic ability to age, and difficulty to grow. Because of this, it’s rare as a single cultivar and often produced in a heavily oaked style.
Mischa’s Roussanne 2021 is unoaked so you can experience the full range of beautiful, bold flavours this elegant Roussanne has to offer. Out of 14 vintages, this Roussanne is only the 5th to be placed into the bottle and in very limited quantity.

WhiteWineGurl –
I must admit, Roussanne isn’t usually for my palate, but I cannot deny the quality and production of this wine. Incredible with steak, fantastic with curries… it’s an experience in a bottle!
