Description
Produced also in the Sparkling version, this aromatic white wine is made from the Roero Arneis grapes grown in the region on the left bank of the Tanaro river, mentioned for the first time in an official document dating as far back as 1478, which demonstrates the deep-rooted bond with the territory. According to popular tradition the term "Arneis" in Piedmontese dialect usually indicates an extroverted and original person, but also a bit rebellious.
