NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Fratelli Ponte Roero Arneis shows a medium straw color in the glass leading on to a moderate intensity nose of pear, almond, and chamomile.The palate is dry and medium bodied with an oily palate texture balanced by refreshing acidity. The finish is moderate in length with a gentle stony minerality. This wine is a good match for lighter risotto dishes such as zucchini and preserved lemon or crab and chilli. Drink within 4 years.
