Dandelion Vineyards Roussanne Honeypot of the Barossa Barossa Valley 2020

Pale gold, bright and clear in appearance. Aromas of allspice, rose water, bath salts and geranium. Lifted yet gentle. A clean, clear bright front palate, with stirring and bracing acidity through the mid to the back palate. A textual grip grabs your throat in the after-taste, which is long and dry. For the most part, this white wine has rain water quality, highlighted by a mineral salt and savory fruit flavors - green apple, green herbs, and citrus foliage.

This Roussanne's palate is a good match for spicy, lively food, or fatty, crumbly country terrines. An uplifting and wonderfully surprising wine.
