First Drop Bella Coppia Arneis
2011 was a game-changing vintage across south-eastern Australia, a tough, cool season that worked magic with some vineyards. Bella Coppia is cooler, calmer and fresher than ever, a wine of dazzling acidity and mouthfilling texture. Crunchy lemons, grapefruit zest, a hint of almost ripe honeydew and a varietal note of dried grass are all part of the parade here, making for a perfect match with sushi and sashimi. This could just be the finest First Drop Arneis yet. $23 at World Wine.
