2008 San Michele Roero Arneis DOCG

This is a lovely elegant white wine from the indigenous Arneis grape variety.

In the past a church was always built on top of a hill so that the saint could protect the harvest from any kind of natural disaster, thus the name for the Cru San Michele, the oldest Arneis vineyard in the Deltetto family’s property just a short distance from the winery.

Tasting Notes
Straw yellow colour, bouquet of exotic fruit, apples and vanilla which make this wine elegant and perfect for ageing.

Matching
Drink as an aperitif or with appetisers and light first courses.

Winemaking Notes
Fermentation at controlled temperature. 30% of the wine is matured in French oak barriques for 6 months and the remainder in steel vats.
