Tercero 2014 Camp 4 Vineyard Marsanne (Santa Ynez Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Marsanne
Winery: Tercero / Camp 4 Vineyard

Quite yellow in the glass, this solid bottling of a tough-to-master grape shows rich aromas of dried lemon peel, beeswax, smoke, nut oil and sandstone on the nose. The viscous palate offers dried pears, seared lemons and a hint of salinity—elements that will continue to converge and gain nuance with cellar time.
