Roussanne white wine variety

January 22, 2011

Roussanne wines are often described as more elegant than those of better known Marsanne. In the vineyard the variety is less popular because of its lack of hardiness and susceptibility to powdery mildew.

The aromas of Roussanne are often likened to those of herbal tea and pears. With age the floral notes in the aroma are replaced with more complex characters. Like its sister this variety ages very well, give it five or even ten years bottle age.

In Australia this variety is made into varietal wines and is often blended with Marsanne, or occasionally in a three way blend with Viognier. Yerringberg in the Yarra Valley makes outstanding wine from Roussanne. It needs extended bottle age.

In the Northern Rhone the variety is used in blends with Marsanne to make white Hermitage wines, it is also used as a component of the red wines of Chateauneuf du Pape. Roussanne is becoming increasingly popular in several other regions of Southern France including Provence and the Languedoc and Roussillon wine regions. It is also a favourite variety among the ‘Rhone Rangers’ of California, and there are some plantings in Northern Italy.
