2006 Denner Vineyard Theresa

I believe this is Denner's signature white blend: 73% Roussanne and 27% Viognier. It is pretty awesome, and just gets better as it breathes and evolves. A classic Rhone blend that smells like grapes grown in limestone rich soil. Saffron on the nose and following on the palate with a full mouth feel and tart finish - hints of baby aspirin which Court agreed with.

Great example of what a talent can do to interesting grapes in Central California. I drank with wine with a chipotle spiked gazpacho with shrimp and avocado. It really tamed the spice, and the tomato really brought out an interesting depth of flavor in the blend.

Buy it if you can find it and hold onto it for a few years. Great now, but can go interesting places.
