Product Notes

Fontanafredda Pradalupo Roero Arneis wine is an elegant Italian white wine from the Piedmont region. Embodying a bright straw-yellow hue, it boasts a delicate fragrance of fresh pears, apples, and acacia flowers. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine tantalises with its crisp citrus notes and nuanced complex finish. It is finely balanced and underpinned by an alluring minerality that reflects the unique terroir. A refined choice for sophisticated palates, Pradalupo is best enjoyed chilled, complementing delicately flavoured dishes with its distinctive charm. Fontanafredda's commitment to excellence makes this Arneis a fine example of Piedmont winemaking tradition.

Tasting Notes

Arneis is the newly trendy white grape from northern Italy and it's easy to see why: this is scented and approachable, redolent of exotic fruit, ripe pear, hawthorns and acacia honey.
