The first crop of roussanne from the 2000 vintage was found to be covered in a sea of tiny Money Spiders (Erigoninae). Popular belief is that kindness to these active little creatures will bring good luck, hopefully in the form of money. Being nature-lovers and slightly superstitious to boot, d'Arenberg refrained from sending the spiders to their death and hence were not able to release the first roussanne until the 2001 vintage by which time the Money Spiders had learned their lesson and moved from the vineyard to the bushland surrounding the winery.
