Collection: Roero Arneis DOCG

Roero Arneis DOCG belongs to Piemonte in northern Italy, in the Roero hills north of the Tanaro river close to Alba. It is a geographically fixed appellation where the origin is determined by law. Every bottle in this category comes from precisely this area, and that is part of the charm of a wine with such a clear sense of place.

The white lead role is played by the grape arneis, which was historically grown side by side with the red nebbiolo. The variety was long a niche, but over the years it has rediscovered its place and is today the name many associate with the region's fresh white wines. Roero encompasses both red and white wine, and chalky clay soils on the slopes give arneis a fine balance between freshness and soft aromatics.

As a dry white wine, Roero Arneis is a wine that speaks to you if you love restrained, fresh white wines with character rather than grand gestures. It does well as an aperitif, but is just as much at home at the table, ideally with light meat, fish or vegetable dishes. The journey tells a good deal about how a local grape can find its very own place alongside the region's famous red wines.

If you want to delve deeper into the background, you can explore our selection from Piemonte and the rest of Italy, where arneis is part of a long and living wine history. For the wine-curious, Roero Arneis is a good entry point to understanding how a region's classic grapes can complement one another.
