Dry as a bone and herbaceous. Lots of dandelion green flavors. Surprisingly short, compared to other vintages we've tried, but those had quite a bit more age on them...which seemed to do wonders for the wine. Hold to 2018.

not bad, other vintages were definitely better, still a very nice wine.
N. Yeast, dried fruit, flowers, hay, ok and typical T. Very nice acid balance, a bit bubbles (normal for this Arneis and I like it), good finish, fruits (citrus etc).

My favorite at a tasting of Piedmont whites. Crisp and citrussy, layered with some notes of white peach and almond. Reminded me of a lovely bottle of Arneis consumed in Neive last year.

Good wine. Rather light bodied, but full of flavor. Honey and floral notes on the nose. Hits with soft peach flavor at first, then bursts into pear and tangy citrus. There is a hint of Riesling-like mineral character. The finish is long and bright.

extremely tight, tried my best to bruise the wine, it would just not mellow. Pear, excessive citrus zest, grapefruit; I believe this has potential but this bottle would not release nor mellow

A light nose of flower and fruit, crisp mouth feel, with a fruity mineral finish. Works well with light dishes, complex enough to last a meal. Don't serve too cold.

Crisp apples, citrus, mineral and racy acid. Salt & brine linger on the finish. I like it. It's different, and fresh. Aperitif or with food.

Didn't show well; seemed old and tired, flat, little zing.

Pleasant. Nice acidity. More tropical fruits then I remember. Enjoyed on a warm Charlotte night but not sure I would purchase again.

Nice - light and flavorful. Good on it's own, but also worked well with food. Would buy again.

Surprisingly this survived an accidental freezing in my mini fridge. Turned out light, crisp, and enjoyable. Quaffable but not very deep.

Wine Adventure - Alto-Adige, Valpolicella, Soave, Bolgheri, Barbaresco & Barolo; 9/11/2013-9/20/2013 (Italy): Very little color in the glass. Nose of citrus and pear. Light frizzante style. Soft texture, medium acidity, with pear and lemon on the palate. Missing the structure and minerality I prefer in a white.
