Known by many as "Barolo Bianco", the arneis varietal was on the verge of extinction when winemaker Alfredo Currado of the well-known Vietti winery decided to capitalize on the newfound popularity of Piedmont wines in the1960s. Seeing its potential to achieve greatness, he planted some of his vineyards to arneis and encouraged others to do the same. Indeed, the end result WAS greatness!

With a history that dates back to the late 19th century, the Ceretto family has emerged over the last 20 years as being among the greatest producers in the region of Piedmont. Their holdings include over 400 acres of vineyards, including some of the top sites in the prestigious DOCG areas of Barolo and Barbaresco. The family name is synonymous with estate-grown, carefully produced wines that express true varietal character with purity and elegance.

The 2022 Ceretto "Blange" Langhe Arneis is rich and round yet infused with bright acidity, with aromas and flavors of Granny Smith apples, pears, apricots, and orange peel laced with accents of wet stone. The wine finishes long with subtle hints of hazelnuts.

90 points, James Suckling:
"This is fresh and floral with notes of lemons, pears, chamomile, jasmine and chalk. Medium-bodied with juicy acidity and vivid, citrusy character. Flavorful finish."

ABV: 13%
