"The 2014 Arbe Garbe is 45% Tocai, 35% Malvasia Bianca and 20% Ribolla Gialla. An esoteric, eccentric, but gorgeous wine, this wine offers up notes of orange marmalade, cantaloupe and melons in a wonderfully fragrant, refreshing style. It hits the palate with gorgeous fruit, freshness and lively acidity. This beauty was fermented and aged in 500-liter puncheons. Intense and seductive . . . . In the case of the two white wines, these are California’s version of dry white wines from Friuli."
