01Tasting notes
“Honeyed almond, beeswax, white peach skin, lemon balm.”
Honeyed almond, beeswax, white peach skin, lemon balm. Saline finish. The kind of white that asks for a second glass.
Our most patient wine. Eight months in a single concrete egg before bottling. No malolactic, no oak influence. The limestone speaks plainly.

- Grilled snapper
- Goat cheese
- Roasted chicken

03Frequently asked
Ordering this wine.
How do I buy this wine?
Add Limestone Roussanne to your cart at $42 a bottle, or join the Cellar Club for member pricing and first access to limited bottlings.
Where do you ship?
We ship to thirty-eight eligible states. Sign-on-delivery is required and the recipient must be 21 or older. The full state list appears at checkout.
Is this wine estate-grown?
Yes. Every Calicheridge wine is grown on our own twenty-eight acres east of Fredericksburg, fermented with native yeasts and aged in mostly neutral oak.
How should I store and serve it?
Keep it cool and on its side until you open it. Reds show best with a short decant; whites are happiest lightly chilled, not cold.
