About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie in the small, hilly Roero area on the left bank of the Tanaro River, opposite Barbaresco on the right bank. They face east and southeast, on soils rich in limestone, marl and sand with a small proportion of clay. Arneis grows particularly well in these conditions.

Vinification

The grapes are carefully selected. Fermentation takes place in small, temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine remains in the stainless-steel tanks for four months.

Tasting profile

Delicate and elegant on the palate.
