This is an Arneis from a single vineyard, located in the municipality of Canale, called Sru, where there is less sand and more calcareous soil, so the wine has delicate citrus aromas.
The wine was left in steel tanks on its fine lees for a year.
Sru has a long finish; is excellent even in years to come. So can stay in the wine cellar for a while for those who make the choice of storage wine.
