The Arneis grape, is native to the region and very nearly died out, but over the last couple of decades it has been re-introduced by local wine makers.

“Arneis” translates locally as the little rascal with a certain charm.

It’s an appropriate name for the grape as it’s a difficult grape to grow but once mastered produces a wine of good complexity and taste.
