Tasting Notes for d'Arenberg Nostalgia Fine Old Tawny NV 375ml:
Massive concentration with a rich sultana and currant nose. The palate is balanced and fresh with the longest nuttiest finish you could ever wish for.
Press Coverage:
"It offers up aromas of scotch whiskey, caramel, candy, marmalade, raisins, and a touch ofspicy nuts. Rich, flavourful, and fleshy, it was fashioned from a solera averaging 15 years of age. It can be drunk now, or aged for another decade."
Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate - 2004-11-01
Producer Information:
Joseph Rowe Osborn, founder of d'Arenberg and patron of the turf, bought his first McLaren Vale vineyards with the winnings of his racehorse, Footbolt, whose name lives on in Shiraz form. His grandson d'Arry and great-grandson Chester inherited the business and have built it into one of Australia's best loved wineries. The last decade has seen Chester develop a range of white wines every bit as individual and thrilling as the reds with which the company made its name. With the iconic red stripe labels and funky names d'Arenberg's wines have a loyal following, eager for more of the rich, concentrated fruit for which they are famous.
