Ronchi di Cialdini, a small, family-driven estate in Piedmont’s Roero hills, takes Arneis to uncharted territory with this groundbreaking “in Amphoras” release. Winemaker Luca Fertino ferments and ages the 2024 vintage entirely in buried amphorae—ancient terracotta vessels that breathe like nothing else, imparting zero oak while amplifying Arneis’ inherent texture, minerality, and wild alpine purity. The result is a Langhe Bianco that feels both timeless and revolutionary: vibrant fruit meets profound soil signature in a wine that redefines what white Piedmont can be.

Why You’ll Love It

• Amphora magic: subtle oxygen exchange yields creamy texture without any wood influence.

• Roero soul: crisp pear, citrus blossom, and wet river stone from high-altitude, sandy soils.

• Textural thrill: silken mouthfeel with electric acidity—complex yet crushable.

• Offbeat elegance: skin-contact whispers and savory depth make every sip evolve.

Pairing Suggestions
Raw scallops with finger lime, roast chicken with herbs de Provence, or creamy goat cheese with honeycomb. Serve chilled to 11–13°C, no decant needed.
