Fontanafredda "Pradalupo" Roero Arneis

White wine | Roero Arneis DOCG

White Barolo!
This ''Pradalupo'' is a typical Arneis, delicate, with aromas of pear and hawthorn flowers. On the palate it is ample and delicate at the same time, with a beautiful liveliness and a honeyed finish. Arneis is sometimes nicknamed white Barolo, taking advantage of the reputation of the king of Piedmont, red Barolo, even if the two grape varieties are only distantly related. Saved from extinction in the 1970s, Arneis is coming back to life today, thanks to wineries like Fontanafredda.

Fontanafredda

The former hunting ground of King Victor Emmanuel II was transformed into a wine estate in 1878 to produce quality wines, particularly Barolo. Today, Fontanafredda, a world-renowned winery and the largest certified organic wine company in Piedmont, retains its noble past, but also continues its quest for innovation.
