Bruno Giacosa Roero Arneis 2017

The nose presents pineapple, pear, and apricot notes with floral hints. On the palate, it is fresh, full-bodied, with mineral notes and a persistent finish.

From a hot vintage, the 2017 Roero Arneis is a rich and pulpy white wine with bright fruit definition. The bouquet delivers tropical fruit, papaya and apricot. The mouthfeel is rich with thick fruit flavors. This vintage shows superior structure. But an expert winemaking hand is clearly at play, because that sunny ripeness falls short of tasting jammy or too heavy. 

This wine is bright, enticing, and crisp. Its aromas and flavors of citrus and earth make it an impeccable pairing partner with shellfish linguine in a light cream sauce.
