I will always remember this wine for being one of the highest quality wines that I have tried at the beginning of my career as a sommelier. I grew up in Piemonte, where the Arneis grape variety has always played an essential role in this region’s wine production. This particular bottle is a great style to start familiarising with this fantastic indigenous grape variety
