Nez de pomme verte, miel, assez floral. Acidité modérée, minéral en bouche, notes d’amandes, avec les arômes du début en rétro-olfaction. Beau produit bien équilibré mais qui manque un peu de caractère.

First I had of this grape. A new flavor for me of which I was not sure I liked at all...until I was on the third glass. Hmmm. When I cam back the next day for the rest of the bottle it was again like the first glass the day before....lack luster. But not a bad wine; just not for me. I wanted to try this grape, and that I have accomplished. Not again though.

Medium + to high acid, fruity nose of citrus, melon, medium to med + body. Serve with fatty fish, cream sauce, sweet or other fatty mild protein. Without food is so acidic that it burns mouth and tongue. Enjoyed with black cod and butter lemon sauce but did not enjoy after meal due to acidity.

Straw color. Smelled honey, raw almond, apple, and wet stone; the taste was dominated by the first and last of those. A big white in the mouth, somewhat overmatching the acidity. Finishes fruity and medium.

Fruit like ripe apple, peach and lemon curd. Medium acidity. A nutty quality. Heavy in the mouth with an oily quality. Touch of residual sugar. Might drink this with creamy Tuscan chicken.

interesting wine here. Surprised by the aromatics and power this wine brings. The nose is bursting with tree fruits like lemon, lime, banana, and also a touch of red fruits like white cherry and crabapple. The palate is full bodied with quite a chalky texture and unmistakeable italian minerality. The palate does come off a bit hot and unbalanced, and this is a hard wine to drink a lot of for that reason. But quite an interesting try at $25. I guess you can try holding a few years to see if this comes together.

Peachy, rich nose, hint of bitterness, full bodied, plump on the palate, peach fruit again, some heat, flabby acids, falls away in the finish. Unbalanced.

Pale, light straw in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe citrus fruit aromas of lemons/limes, melon & some peach notes with overtones of floral notes of honeysuckle, stony & a touch of minerals in the background. Light bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, crisp, ripe fruit flavors of lemons/limes, melon & pears, stony, minerals & a hint of honey. Lingering crisp finish. Drinks well at present although it may develop further with several more years of additional aging.

Open for business immediately after the PnP. Fresh white flowers and sweet honeydew melon draw you into undertones of lemongrass and citrus rind. A fresh mineral acidity running throughout the wine keeps you wanting more.
Perfect with brie and crackers. At $20 USD, I'd definitely buy this again.

100% Arneis. Pale straw yellow color, fresh aromas of pear, white flower, almonds. On the palate, medium bodied, elegant, structured, balanced, fresh lingering finish, lovely wine for whole range of dishes. 14% ABV

Great value wine, plenty of depth and mineral drive. Purchased off a restaurant list and remains a good choice, having had several vintages.

Straw yellow color. Floral, citrus and pear on nose. Lemony with a lot of acidity mid to late palate.

Good intensity of grapefruit and lemon notes with strong stony minerality. Persistent and lively with a long, mouth-watering aftertaste.
