Nino Costa was founded by the Costa family in 1851. The estate consists of 7 hectares which lie on a hilltop overlooking the village of Montà in the heart of Roero in Piedmont. Winemaker Alessandro Costa grows Arneis, Nebbiolo, Favorita and Brachetto in their yellow-ochre sandy soils and his parents, Nino and Gemma, run the Azienda. The vineyards are dotted along the wooded hillsides of the region, though all of them are within 1 mile of the winery. All grapes are grown with organic methods, using natural fertilizers and zero herbicides.

This 100% Arneis comes from 16 year old vineyards located in Montà and Canale at an altitude of 280-320 meters above sea level on sandy soils. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel and aged on the lees for six months with regular battonage, and half the wine undergoes malolactic conversion. Light gold color with aromas of pears, white flowers and wet rocks. The palate is fresh and round with plenty of zip and concentration which leads into a refreshing and elegant finish. Enjoy with fresh vegetables served alongside roast chicken.
