Serra Lupini

By Angelo Negro, Roero, Piemonte, Italy

Angelo Negro Serra Lupini

The estate's Roero Arneis from the Serra Lupini vineyard in Monteu Roero, fermented and aged in steel on its lees.

Tasting notes

Intense straw yellow. Yellow fruit with peach to the fore, acacia flowers and tropical fruit. Soft, persistent attack and a savoury, mineral finish that the producer ties to the sandy soil of Roero.
