Arneis among the Roero sands

The white grape finds different exposures on the Tanaro’s left-bank hills.

Arneis is the principal grape of Roero’s white wines. Here, sandy layers alternate with marl, clay and limestone in a landscape shaped by the Tanaro’s changing course. Arneis vineyards can occupy both southern slopes and cooler northern exposures. The same grape also supplies the denomination’s sparkling white wines, giving several expressions to this shared hill country.

The delimited Roero area

The grape area lies on the Tanaro’s left bank in Cuneo province. It includes four whole municipalities and defined parts of fifteen others.
