The 2015 'Northern White' by Rotie Cellars is a fantastic effort and they have managed to keep the alcohol levels exceedingly low (11.2%) in this warm vintage. This 100% Marsanne wine opens with aromatics of honeydew, white rose, green olive and brioche. There are lovely flavors of green papaya, mango, cantaloupe and a touch of honey all taking shape on the palate. This is wonderfully balanced and should continue to drink well over the next few years. (Best 2016-2022) - July, 2016 (OB)
