Fermented in 3,000-liter Hungarian oak tanks, this complex and layered wine is made from white Rhone varieties. It's 40% roussanne, 21% vermentino, 20% grenache blanc, 10% marsanne, 6% picpoul blanc and 3% clairette blanche. While ripe and generous, it's also tangy and slightly tannic, with a fresh bite in texture. Medium-bodied. Drink or hold.

The 2022 Theresa is based largely on Roussanne (40%) yet has smaller amounts of Vermentino, Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, and other varieties. It has a slightly hazy gold hue as well as a singular nose of dried herbs, minty citrus, melon, and toasted nuts. Slightly reductive at first, it opens up beautifully with air, and it's medium-bodied, has a focused, elegant mouthfeel, good concentration, and a distinct salinity on the finish. It's going to absolutely shine on the dinner table.

The 2022 Theresa is fresh, with a floral air giving way to hints of lime and wet stones. This is soft-textured with ripe orchard fruits and tactile mineral tones up front. It finishes with grip and notes of sour citrus, leaving an herbal tinge to linger on.
