100% Arneis
Roero, Piedmont, Italy
A family of winemakers, the Almondos have been deeply rooted to this region since the 14th century and to this day continue to oversee and carry out all aspects of their production personally. This still white wine is created using Arneis grapes sourced from different vineyards all within the Montà d’Alba, Roero region of Piemonte, Italy, which has a sandy terroir and high elevation. Aged for 6 months in stainless steel vats, this Arneis remains 'sur lie' (on the lees) in order to round out its flavors. Look for apricot and pear on the nose while the palate features peach, honey, and a distinct freshness. Pair with carpaccio, pan-seared pork loin chops, and chicken piccata.
