Bric Cenciurio – Roero Arneis Sito dei Fossili – 2023

Arneis is the most typical and widespread white grape variety in the Langhe, born precisely in the Roero subzone where, thanks to the soils of marine origin, it finds the perfect conditions to express itself best. Arneis Sito dei Fossili comes exactly from a vineyard located in Castellinaldo small village of Roero, thanks to the soils rich in sand and fossils ( hence the name of the wine ) and plants of about forty years old, we find one of the best examples of this grape, represented in a slightly more complex version without changing the mineral and perfumed characteristics of this grape variety. In this case the wine carried out vinification in wooden barrels, and aging in steel tanks and bottle. Arneis particularly aromatic, good texture in the mouth, but very persistent and saline.

Description

Among the Docg Barolo names Bric Cenciurio is a small winery run by the Pittatore family in the village of Barolo, founded in the 1990s. It was Franco Pittatore along with his brother-in-law Carlo Sacchetto who decided to combine their properties within the appellation and buy new vineyard land in Roero, thus beginning wine production with the first label in 1996. The winery owns 14 hectares of land divided into the cultivation of Barbera, Nebbiolo and Arneis by practicing natural farming techniques so as to preserve the surrounding environment and the health of the vineyards. The age of the vineyards and their enhancement of the terroir allows the characteristics of the individual wines to be enhanced, especially with Barolo where Coste di Rose and Monrobiolo di Bussia are produced from their respective crus. The winery’s style is purely traditional accompanied by modern methods in winemaking, manual harvests with selection of the best bunches and aging in large barrels for a long time.
