Tasting notes
The Bruno Giacosa 2021 Roero Arneis is an especially luminous and fresh white wine that is packed with tropical fruits and floral notes. There is great freshness, and the wine reveals an elegant mineral signature. Production was reduced in this vintage (with some 150,000 bottles created) and even more so in 2022 due to the heat. Fruit for this wine is purchased in the neighboring Roero appellation. Harvest took place on September 17th, and the wine fermented in stainless steel at 16 degrees Celsius, lasting 15 to 20 days. It remained in contact with the fine lees for three months.

About the producer
Bruno Giacosa – now run by daughter Bruna – is a cult Nebbiolo producer, that has consistently made some of the best single-vineyard Barbaresco and Barolo from the 1960s onwards. The“red-label” Riservas are some of the finest and most collectable wines in Italy.
