Origin/History
Marsanne is a flexible and adaptable grape found throughout the Rhone Valley. It reaches its peak in the appellation of Hermitage in the Nothern Rhone, where it is often blended with Roussane. Its tendency to pick up mineral characters from the soils makes it an important piece of many wines.
Wine
Tastes of melon and minerals, and has a golded straw color.
