Quite an unusual blend of Riesling marsanne and sauvignon blanc that just happens to work beautifully - a refreshing aperitif or with grilled fish or chicken.

Pale, light and legless. The nose is very fruity, bright with hints of orange. The palate is full with rich fruit lined with a bright acidity. It stays clean through a reasonably long finish. Nice food wine

A really big nose of pear and pineapple hits you from way above the glass and the palate is also a big hitter. You expect the honey sweetness of the Riesling to last longer but the grassy mineral tones of the Sauv Blanc come in quickly. It is good and for the price I will definitely drink more but it is not a patch on most d'Arenbergs.
