Jeb Dunnuck - The Rhone Report
"A blend of 60% Roussanne, 25% Grenache Blanc, and 15% Marsanne that was aged primarily in concrete tank (with half of the blend going through Malolactic fermentation), the 2011 Denner Theresa is a brilliant white that has rich, full aromas of poached pear, honeyed peach, brioche, and hints of hazelnut on the nose. This profile is mirrored on the palate, where it has a medium+ bodied texture, superb freshness and focus, and a building richness the comes through on the finish. Overall, this is a serious white that deserves a classy meal. It should shine for 2-3 years, possibly longer."
