An unusual blend of 49% Riesling, 29% Marsanne, 22% Sauvignon Blanc The Marsanne is dominating the first nose impression, then come the typical herbal-mineral notes of the Sauvignon Blanc creating an unusual sensation. On the palate the Riesling softens the other varieties but doesn't dominate the flavours. A long herbal-mineral ending dominats the aftertaste. A bit over the peak and lost some of its fruityness.

A special blend; Riesling, SB and Marsanne. The result is also special. A bit of sweetness. Ok acidity. Don't know what to think of it, but I don't really like it.

A very unique blend. The riesling dominates with honey and lemon peel on the nose. A very intriguing blend, there's probably not another one like this. d'Arenberg hits a home run.

Quite an interesting blend of varieties, which allies crisp acidity to a refreshing mix of citrus and floral notes. Really pleasant and food-friendly, with no oak in sight.
