The Saint-Péray Roussanne is a bright lemon colour. The nose has aromas of apricots, white flowers and lightly toasted brioche. The palate is fruity with well-balanced acidity and a mineral finish.

Domaine du Tunnel have two hectares of Roussanne in Saint-Péray. This wine is made using fruit from four lieu-dits: Barras, Grand Plantier, Combe and l'Arzalier. The Barras vineyard is planted at 250 metres above sea level, adding crisp acidity and aromatics to the blend.

Domaine du Tunnel is situated in an old steam train tunnel in the charming village of Saint-Péray in the Northern Rhône. This small family domaine is run by Stéphane Robert and his wife Sandrine. Stéphane, also the winemaker, began by renting vines in 1994 when he was just 24 years old. He now owns 10 hectares of vines located in Cornas, Saint-Péray and Saint-Joseph.
