Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Stylistically aligned with its Piedmont predecessors, this vintage of our "little rascal" draws you in with the beautiful medium straw colour. This light to medium-bodied dry white wine's nose is subtle with aromas of white flowers, lime and a herbaceous note. On the palate, herbal notes along with black tea, green apple and kiwi will have you coming back for another glass. The wine rests its nicely calibrated mid-palate weight and richness on a fresh, crisp streak of acid and a unique brine-y note. This makes our 2020 Arneis such a perfect fit for all seafood, especially oysters and other shellfish, or any sharp cheeses like Pecorino or Manchego. Arneis is a crisp wine that is ready to drink now and will be best enjoyed over the next two to three years.
