Tasted at a D'Arenberg merchant event. Medium yellow. Expressive nose of dried fruit, peach with some minerals. On the mid palate quite dense and aromatic. I wonder how well this goes with food as it is quite a rich wine.

Bright straw yellow, lifted nose with good white Rhone varietal expression, floral, citrus and granny smith Apple with roast herbs and spice. Good palate weight with fresh tangy acidity. Long spicy finish.

HdR 2012 - D'Arenberg Tasting: Very light straw in the glass. Crisp peach nose with light honeysuckle. Medium to light bodied with ripe light stone fruit. Fairly tasty.

Drank this at a dinner at home with sushi and sashimi. We later added french fries, fried sotong balls, taiwan sausages and chips to the table.
Floral with dark, citrus fruits notes on the nose. On the palate there is a distinct wet rock and dragon fruit taste.
An interesting Southern Rhone flavour in an Australian bottle.
