It’s a difficult, low-yielding white grape from the Piedmont (NW Italy) whose name, Arneis translates to “Little Rascal”. I discovered it while visiting the region, a few years back, and have been a fan ever since. Aromatic, spicy, and full-flavored it entertains the pallet with crisp lime and tart tree fruits. It paired well with salad based foods and light cheeses. Roero is where, within the Piemonte, the grapes were grown. — 4 years ago

Rich perfume of spices and pomegranate. Specifically pomegranate. Beautiful bee pollen and mulling spices. No harshness. The fragrance of a rich and blossoming garden of roses.
Woah. Zippity zip. We got acidity, and it’s medium to high but with the natural carbonation and juice juice juice, it just works man.
It’s got sour framboise beer qualities, but of course the tannins and the cola like quality just sings.

Needs decanting but after a while it opens up — 7 years ago
Fresh & bright with cherry & blueberry and some wilted roses. On the palate juicy and light with fruity acidity and light tannins. There’s a mineral streak beneath and a touch of fresh herbs towards the finish. Delightful stuff. — 7 years ago
Tasted blind. Dark tawny color. Translucent but barely so. Fragrant nose. Italian is the first verbal guess. Notes of black cherry, black soil, rose petals and some wood. Chewy in the mouth. Young and refined. After debating if it's an 89 or a 90 Barolo I go with a guess of 82 Giacosa SS Barbaresco. A great treat to try this side by side against the 78 Conterno Monfortino. Giacosa wins tonight. — 7 years ago
