Giovanni Almondo Roero Arneis "Sparse" (Piemonte) 2006


A delicious, everyday white from agronomist, winemaker, and mayor, Giovanni Almondo. Grown in high-altitude vineyards, a scant 30 miles from the swiss border, his arneis "Sparse" is a super-bright straw yellow color which sparkles in the glass. The wine has a fresh, citrus aroma, vibrant acidity, and a smooth, clean finish, untouched by oak. 11 commas ( a new record!)
