Bruno Giacosa, Roero DOCG (Piedmont, Italy) Arneis 2016

Aug 21, 2018

By Jessica Dupuy

 Surprisingly a grape that was once virtually extinct, Arneis has made a comeback in its native home of the Roero DOCG in PIedmont.  A sensitive grape that can quickly lose its acidity if not picked at just the right moment, Arneis is known to deliver both brightness and body.  This wine is no exception.  With aromas of marshmallow, lemon pulp and orange blossom, this wine displays an energetic palate with a concentrated medium body and a delightful silky finish.
