title: Tranche 2008 Slice of Pape Blanc Viognier-Roussanne (Columbia Valley (WA))
description: Rich, almost unctuous, with a lush, lanolin mouthfeel, this is a passionfruit creamsicle of a wine. The fruit is a seductive and generous mix of peach, Asian pear and tropical; the alcohol a full-bodied 14.5%. The Roussanne part (58% of the blend) is barrel fermented; the Viognier done in stainless. Blended together they harmonize beautifully.
variety: Viognier-Roussanne
