Langhe Arneis Hortensia 2025 captures the character of one of the Langhe’s most distinctive white grape varieties. Made entirely from Arneis, it comes from vineyards in Madonna di Como, in the municipality of Alba, where eastern exposure and calcareous, clay-rich soils with white marl provide the setting for its expressive style. The vines are trained using the Guyot system, with yields kept to 80 quintals per hectare.
The grapes are destemmed and gently pressed before undergoing white-wine fermentation at a carefully controlled temperature of 10–12°C. The wine then rests for two to three months on fine lees. Weekly lees movements and the suspension of natural yeast activity encourage further aromatic extraction, helping preserve the wine’s fragrant character. It is subsequently racked, filtered and bottled.
In the glass, it shows a deep straw-yellow colour. The nose is intense and inviting, revealing notes of white flowers, citrus and chamomile. The palate is fruity and fresh, supported by a pleasing mineral backbone that gives the wine definition and balance. Its signature almond-like finish adds a delicate, recognisable touch. Best enjoyed within its first three years, this Arneis offers an appealing combination of freshness, aromatic intensity and easy versatility.
Serve chilled at 6–8°C. Its lively character makes it an excellent match for appetisers, first courses, fish and shellfish, while its freshness and mineral edge also make it a delightful aperitif.
