Excellent nose of stone fruit, pear, and tamarind nectar. The nose is reticent of a dry riesling with more earthy tones. Great mouthfeel with balanced acids and a warm, nutty, peachy finish. Lots of stuffing, minerality and complexity for the price. Definitely worth the dough.

This wine is not for everyone I guess as other people here seem to like it. This is the 2nd time I've had an Arneis and didn't really enjoy it. Nice grapefruit and lime on the nose full round mouthfeel and good sharp acidity, but I didn't like the medecinal, ammoniac aftertaste. It was better with food, but we had a tough time drinking it on its own.

A relatively fruity, floral and full-bodied arneis. Still with sufficient acids, just a little softer than expected. Enjoyed with oven-fried cod.

A nice Arneis. Grapefruit, and citrus on the nose. Good mouth-feel and fullness on the palate. Went well with trout and lemon.
