ROERO ARNEIS D.O.C.G. Frusté

“Frusté” Roero Docg Arneis is made exclusively from Arneis grape. It has delicate and elegant aromas of white flowers and fresh fruit such as apple, peach and hazelnut. It has a bright straw yellow colour with greenish hues. On the palate, the wine is dry and fresh with a long finish and pleasant bitter aftertaste.

A refined vintage white wine with a strong identity that reflects its origins.

The temperate breezes of Lake Garda and the ancient clay soils, of moraine origin, give this wine scents, aromas and unmistakable flavors that recall the summer.
