Tasting Notes: The Giovanni Almondo Arneis Vigne Sparse is a great entry into the joys of Arneis, one of the most important white varieties in the Roero. Clean and sharp flavors of white pepper, almond, under-ripe pear and mineral-driven citrus blend into a finish loaded with energy and sparked by a salivating finish.
Estate History: The Almondos have been grape growers in the Roero area of Piemonte for more than three hundred years, but it was current winemaker Domenico’s father, Giovanni Almondo, who was the first to bottle the wines. They currently tend to six hectares of Arneis, the noble white variety of Piemonte, and four hectares of Nebbiolo, also one-and-a-half hectares of Barbera, and a tiny parcel of Brachetto which goes into the classic, slightly sparkling, pale sweet Fosso della Rosa. Giovanni Almondo spends time in the vineyards, while day-to-day operations are in the hands of Domenico and his sons, Stefano and Federico.
