Seghesio Arneis 2002 (F)
Arneis, in Italian, means “little rascal” due to the difficulty of growing this grape.
I first tried this wine a couple weeks ago and liked it. Unfortunately, I don’t recall the vintage but it certainly wasn’t 2002. This bottle is so hot it’s almost undrinkable. The overwhelming nose and taste is grain alcohol. I didn’t take any notes on the first bottle but I seem to remember a nose of straw, apricot and honey with soft citrus flavors on the tongue. None of that is detectable here - just a lot of alcohol, acid and lemon.
