D’ Arenberg The Hermit Crab Viognier/Marsanne 2006
$12.99 Aisle 7A

The Hermit Crab in my opinion is the best white wine from Australia under $20. This wine always has amazing press behind it and was highlighted as a Wine Spectator top 100 wines of the year in 2007. Apricots and peaches segue into a plump, rich, dense palate that says au revoir with an almond finish. D’arenberg always delivers an interesting twist on delicate French varietals.

Food: Lobster or monk fish, sushi and grilled fruit such as pineapple glazed shrimp and apricots topped with goat cheese.

Cheers,

Danny Gold
