Roux is the nickname of my oldest daughter, Margaux, and this wine is my meditation to our relationship. This 96 year old, dry farmed, vineyard produces a ridiculously small crop of 100 cases off of 4 acres. This is my favorite wine for "big red" meals. This is Petite Syrah for both fans of the varietal and skeptics. The density of the wine will appeal to proponents of big red wines but without any of the rough edges that can turn people off to Petite Syrah. Roux offers trademark dark, saturated purple color. The nose possesses a good amount of lavender with menthol undertones. This is my cellar favorite, and wonderful partner to long braised meats.
