Arneis is Piedmont\u2019s aromatic white grape, historically called \u201cBarolo Bianco.\u201d It thrives in Roero\u2019s sandy soils, producing crisp, floral wines under Roero Arneis DOCG.<\/p>\n

Characteristics<\/h2>\n

The wine has a pale straw-yellow color. Delicate aromas of pear, apricot, and white flowers are underscored by a flinty minerality. On the palate, it is light-bodied with zesty acidity and a bitter almond finish.<\/p>\n

Pairings<\/h2>\n

Pairs with vitello tonnato (veal in tuna sauce), risotto al tartufo bianco, and fresh Robiola cheese.<\/p>\n

Curiosities<\/h2>\n

Arneis (\u201clittle rascal\u201d) was nearly abandoned for its low yields. Revived in the 1970s, it\u2019s now a flagship of Roero whites. <\/p>\n
