Arneis is a variety that hails from Piedmont in north-west Italy. With a cool climate and higher altitude sites, Rowlee Wines consistently delivers a beautiful Aussie example. The aromas are perfectly varietal with ripe peak-summer apricots and white nectarines. There’s the early evening perfume of wildflowers and a delicate sea shell minerality. n the mouth, it’s crisp and zesty with stone fruits, honeydew melon and Pink Lady apples. Just a hint of residual sugar (5g) highlights the fresh fruit flavours and adds texture, while well-balanced acidity ensures dryness on the finish. Don’t be shy of the less familiar variety, this is a glorious crowd-pleaser.
Nicole loves wine. So much so that she gave up a successful career in Pharmacy, perfected her spitting technique, and moved from sunny Queensland to the wine-drenched laneways of Melbourne. Stints in hospitality, wineries, retail, sales and marketing filled the next few years while Nicole built her knowledge and searched for the right path. She completed the Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) Diploma in 2016 and became a certified WSET Educator the following year. She now juggles a number of roles including teaching people about wine, curating wines lists for restaurants and bars, judging in Australian wine shows and, of course, writing. In 2016 she won the Negociants Working With Wine writing award and has since contributed to Gourmet Traveller WINE, Halliday Wine Companion Magazine and Nourish Magazine.
