Interesting, complex and different from the usual fare. This Roussanne, Grenache Blanc and Viognier blend has nutty flavors subtly enhanced with white peach and tropical flowers. There’s a hit of smoky oak and vanilla in there, but not too much. Drinks young and fresh, and should improve through 2008. ——S.H.(5/1/2004)—— 92
