Castello di Neive has been making wine in Barbaresco since 1964, and their Arneis from the Montebertotto vineyard shows exactly why this ancient Piemontese grape deserves attention beyond its role as a palate cleanser. This is Arneis with personality rather than politeness. Fresh pear and white peach mingle with that characteristic herbal lift that makes Arneis so food-friendly, while crisp acidity keeps everything bright and focused. Drink now until 2028 whilst the fruit still has its spring in its step.
