Moon Curser Arneis 2020

Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAs far as I, or they, know, Moon Curser is the only one in Canada working with Arneis, the star white from Piemonte. Rooted on the Osoyoos east bench, this was cool fermented in stainless, with no MLF, where it stayed on lees without bâtonnage until the following spring, when it was bottled. The 2020 has slimmed out some since the 2019, bringing more peach fuzz and apricot to the fore, and shedding some of the flabby glycerol on the palate. Lime pith and grapefruit peel continue to tighten this very full bodied white (nearing 15%). Hopefully this trend towards lightness continues in future.Tasted: 12 July 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
