Bruno Giacosa Roero Arneis 2021
Roero Arneis DOCG
Bruno Giacosa wines are met on bended knee, such is the reverence for this once-in-a-lifetime winemaker. They are mainly reds, but this rich, beautifully balanced Arneis is also made, with its intense peachy tones, soft texture and creaminess.

Bruno Giacosa is regarded as one of the finest winemakers of all time, not just in Italy, but across the world. He lived and breathed wine from the start, helping his father and grandfather in the cellar from 13 and full-time from 15. He learnt it all from them, not through study. One of the most important lessons was on choosing fruit, only the best, which was particularly important before he bought vineyards himself – not until 1982. Now with 17 hectares in Barolo and Barbaresco's finest sites and working with a handful of trusted growers, he made wines until his death in 2018 that mesmirised the world. His daughter Bruna now continues this great legacy. Roero Arneis had delicious peach intensity with hints of lemon and crushed stone.
