Cantine Sansilvestro
Roero Arneis
Roero, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Has the “Sabbie” designation on the label but I’m pretty sure this is the same wine. Popped and poured. Pours a straw color. On the nose, a lovely mix of stone fruit, melons and citrus with freshly crushed gravel. On the palate, tart stone fruit, melon and star fruit with minerals. Racy acid provides a long finish. Quite lovely actually.

This one has a spiky acidity in the corners of the palate... it lingers and rides a bit hot on the finish. When you lick your tingly lips in the aftermath, you taste salty minerality. What a wine.

Remember when Jesus said he was the salt of the Earth? He was talking about this wine.

Light minerally herbs, a bit of fruit, with some nice grass & straw notes. Paired with oysters and chips.

Nose of flinty wet rocks and white pears. Green apples and pairs with a saline component on the pallet. Deep color and texture. Fermented on the lees?
