Roero Arneis DOCG

Tasting Notes

This Arneis is made with grapes sourced from the Roero area of Piedmont, on the Northern bank of the Tanaro River where the soft, sandy soils are ideal for this grape varietal. The vineyard from which it is produced has good vigour, steady productivity and no excess. Organically grown.

Temperature-controlled, stainless steel tank vinification to maintain the fragrant aromas of the varietal: pleasantly aromatic, with good finesse. Best enjoyed when young, Arneis offers persistent notes of flowers, white peach and mint. It is perfect as an aperitif with starters, seafood and shellfish.
