Luscious and generous Marsanne Viognier

Bright, spicy and vibrant with a lovely long acid and elegance. As vintage progressed the concentration grew and the colour intensified, resulting in more weighty wines without overripe characters.

* "The name references the Rhône region of Hermitage and crustacean fossils found in limestone bedrock below dArenbergs vineyards. Barrel-fermentation and ageing in French and American oak makes for a rich, complex Viognier-Marsanne. Goes well with rich or spicy white meats." Aoife Carrigy, Irish Independent, 13th November 2021
