Wine Review: This almost clear colored Roero Arneis opens with a pleasant wet stone and lime bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic and mouthwatering. The flavor profile is a mineral infused lemon-lime with hints of apple. The finish is dry and its mineral flavors and acidity last for a while. The mini-tasting group that tried it found it to be enjoyable. A second glass was in order and it did not last long. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The nose presents citrus, pear and apricot notes with floral hints. On the palate, it is fresh, full-bodied, with mineral notes and a persistent finish.
