D'Arenberg The Hermit Crab Marsanne - Viognier 2018 Review
The nose on this wine is crazy. It smells like pears, but flecked with black pepper (I know) and a whiff of ginger. The mouthfeel is rich and round, with a wonderful grip on the palate. It’s a good food wine but can also be enjoyed by itself.
