Arneis 2005

According to the winery, the 2005 Arneis is a crisp clean wine white with flavors of tropical fruit.

Description:
Our 2005 Arneis is the prominent white grape grown in northern Italy, produces a wonderfully light, well-balanced wine with firm acidity and elegant fruit. Rarely grown in California, Arneis has crisp flavors of light tropical fruits with a long finish. It is a delightful white wine that pairs nicely with grilled fish, light pasta dishes and summer salads.

Price: $22.50

Viansa Wine Club members $16.87

So again, this is a wine that was involuntarily sent to me as a Viansa wine club member. I love Viansa wines, though, I’m not that fond of the whites. The Arneis is a white, fruity wine that is slightly acidic in taste which compliments the sweetness of the fruitiness. But it’s not really my style. The only white that i can drink that I really really enjoy is the Chateau Ste Michelle Reisling that I believe is the epitomy of “BALANCED”. The Arneis is approximately $16 in price for Viansa wine club members and doesn’t do justice at all compared to my most favorite white, the Chat. Ste. Michelle for only $5.99 a pop!!! I can never find anything better than that!
