  A tropical melange of Ginger, mango and stone fruits. Pleasant with and without food. Copied with pan fried salmon, garlic and a cannelloni bean, thyme and lemon puree. Rather better than I expected....

  De wijn moet echt even openen, maar dan tref je tropische tonen als ananas en mango. In de mond een best wel alcoholische wijn. Ik schijn de enige te zijn die dat zo ervaart, maar Roussane roept dat bij mij op.Niet mijn druif. Deze wijn is voor mij teveel fruitsnoep.

  Pronounced nose of stone fruit, ginger and lemongrass, and perhaps some autolytic notes. Rich, with stone and tropical fruit on the palate, but not over the top or overly big. Medium-full body and relatively low acid, as would be expected with Roussanne. Not overly complex, certainly, but fruit forward and interesting. A nice wine.

  d'Arenberg Cellar Door: Very light, restrained style (under 13%). Citrus and yellow tropical fruit with medium acidity. Quite good.
