White
Roero Arneis
By Tonino Marchisio, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
Arneis from the Castellinaldo hills, fermented and aged in steel. The producer gives it a lifespan of 2-3 years.
Tasting notes
Pale straw yellow with green reflections and a slightly golden rim. Floral and white and yellow fruit aromas, with hints of moss, almond and meadow herbs. Fresh on the palate with a marked acid backbone, a pleasantly bitter aftertaste and an almond finish.
Pairs well with
Aperitif or starter; works with light white meats, fish, grilled vegetables and stretched-curd cheeses.
