Arneis wine
Roero white wines are made from Piedmont’s local grape Arneis – a name that loosely translates as “little rascal” because it is so hard to grow.
Deliciously elegant and refreshing, this mouth-watering white wine is ideal for warm evenings on the patio. While it’s little known outside of Italy, Roero is located in one of Italy’s best grape-growing areas. In fact it’s just on the other side of the Tanaro River from Langhe, where the iconic reds of Barolo and Barbaresco are made.
What does Arneis wine taste like?
With its aromas of white flowers – such as orange blossom, jasmine and honeysuckle – as well as fresh pear, apricots and a hint of hazelnut, Arneis goes well on its own or alongside light dishes. It’s the perfect partner for garlicky seafood spaghetti, platters of roasted vegetables and crunchy summer salads.
