Copain, Roussanne, James Berry, Paso Robles 2004

Light yellow.

Light peach/pepper, almond, suave oak nose. Subtle, but deep.

Round, fresh and mouthfilling, with a phenolic edge that cuts through it all. I get very little impression of acidity, but loads of mineral/tannic spine. Deep peach/apricot/almond/mineral flavors motor through everything. Very long caramel, mineral finish.

Yes, this rips it up.

$40
