Pleasant melon and apricot flavors and aromas mingle with hints of flowers and wet stones, but there is a heavy vanilla feel to this wine that just seems out of place. The finish is dryish, with some acidity, but this offering is too much like a so-so Pinot Blanc and doesn't have the true Arneis character that can be so enjoyable.
