ROERO ARNEIS DOCG • Sernì

Since 1500 the vine Arneis is cultivated in Roero. Here it has found its country of choice. But the history of this wine is more recent because once it was used as fruit or for the production of a sweet wine.

The Roero Arneis "Sernì" has a straw-yellow colour, its perfume is wide and refined with scent of fruit, flowers and leaven. The taste is well-balanced for the acidity supported by a rich structure, with a long ending. These characteristics make this wine ready to be drunk since the following spring and persist at best for some years.
