Wine: 2007 Junius Lindsay Vineyard Second Leaf Roussanne.
Cost: $15.
Review: Junius Lindsay Vineyard in Davidson County has turned out a delightfully distinctive white wine from roussanne, a grape of the Rhone region that is typically blended with marsanne in its native France. Chief among its distinctions is its enticing aroma of flowers, herbs, apples and a hint of citrus. It also has a refreshing acidity with flavors of melon. It's very well-balanced, relatively low in alcohol at 11.2 percent, and has a long, herbal finish. Serve with white fish or seafood. Available at Wine Merchants Gourmet and at the winery.
