Roero Arneis DOCG Vigne Sparse
Arneis
The purest summary of Arneis. It comes from grapes of different vineyards, all within the Montà d’Alba area, a sandy terroir with a high elevation. Only steel, to enhance the original character of Arneis and its floral fragrances, enriched by the salty accent of its sandy terroir.
On the nose, notes of pear, apple and acacia honey, with citrus and green hints. On the palate, the lingering of a fruity aroma, with a slightly tasty finish.
