Arneis is an ancient white grape variety from Italy's Piedmont region, often referred to as the "little rascal" due to its challenging cultivation. Once nearly extinct, it has seen a revival and is now prized for producing aromatic, full-bodied wines with notes of pear, apricot, and almonds. Arneis is primarily used in the production of Roero Arneis, a well-regarded DOCG wine. This episode will explore Arneis's history, characteristics, and its place in Italian wine culture.
