White
Langhe Arneis
By Bruna Grimaldi, Barolo, Piemonte, Italy
Arneis, the estate's only white grape, made to show the variety's white-flower and tropical-fruit character.
Tasting notes
Aromas of white flowers and tropical fruits (pineapple, banana); soft and creamy on the palate. Best in the first 3 to 4 years for its fresh aromatics, though it can age in bottle.
Pairs well with
Appetizers, refreshing starters, fish, salad, creamy cheese.
