d'Arenberg The Noble Mud Pie 2010

Lovely toffee colour, hints of bronze. Intense apricot with candied fruit.  Sweet nectar with hints of pickled ginger.  Full on -on entry, it's a fair mouth full of wine - luscious you'd say; honeyed with treacly stonefruit.

Finishes with a hint of tropical fruit sweetness - hints of mango nectar.  It's a real sweetie, as such you'd need to pair it up with something as sweet.  Boxing Day and pav round these 'ere parts.  92 - Very Good
