Zuccardi Innovación (Innovation line): Arinarnoa
100% Arinarnoa
Familia Zuccardi
Not available outside of the Familia Zuccardi winery.

This is part of the Innovation line, where Zuccardi experiments with new varietals to see if they’re marketable. So this could be considered somewhat of a “joke,” fun line. The line isn’t actually sold on the market, but rather just at the winery itself I think. Each is quite the unique experience, but none of them are really market-quality wines.

Note: the bottle was open for 4 days when I tried this wine, so I can’t really distinguish how good it was. It had too much bittersweet acidity to it, and I suspect it was too old. For what it was, it wasn’t horrible. Color is rather nice. The smell is pretty decent—like curry. Quite distinct. But just very acidic, and, like I said, it was too old, on top of not being really marketable. I wouldn’t recommend it, except for an interesting experiment yourself.

Overall Score: 1.0/5.0
