WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Vietti Roero Arneis 2022 is produced from hand-harvested Arneis grapes that are gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled low temperatures, with tanks sealed during part of the process to retain natural CO2. The wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation and is aged on its fine lees in stainless steel before bottling. Farming practices are described as 'practicing organic'.
