Additional Information

Arneis is found on the light, sandy soils on the left bank of the Tanaro river in Piedmont, Italy. The grapes are planted on the hills in the southeast and southwest. In the past, Arneis was used to make sweet wine, but since the 1960s, winemakers realized the potential of this white grape and began to vinify it separately from other grape varieties, producing an elegant, dry, soft, perfumed, and floral wine.

Piedmont is undoubtedly the birthplace of all prestigious Italian wines. This may have led to the almost complete stagnation of the evolution towards a more modern type of wine here. Not so at Cantine San Silvestro. This winery, founded in 1871, distinguishes itself by its progressive winemaking methods.

Barolo and Barbaresco still possess the strength and complexity for which they are known, but also align with the modern taste preferences of international consumers. This makes them one of the most important export producers in the region. Most of their wines are also very appealing even when relatively young.
