Domenica Wines Beechworth Roussanne Marsanne 2019

"Beechworth does these Rhone varieties pretty well.

Honey nut cornflakes with butter, chamomile, fennel, a little spice and peach. It’s buttery, slippery, nutty and saline, really quite a lot of lactic stuff, but has some fresh acidity and spiced apple, a little chalky grip, bran and grilled nuts, quite weighty and saline, with a slightly greasy finish of good length. You have to like a more buttery, waxy style of wine here, as it’s loaded with diacetyl character, which is all a bit too much for me, granted, but there you have it. Some may love its buttery richness."
