Product Description

FANTASTIC ITALIAN WINE FOR NEARLY
HALF THE PRICE OF PREVIOUS VINTAGES

"With warmer weather on its way, it couldn’t be better timing for this killer deal on the Deltetto Arneis. Not only is this wine refreshing and delicious, we are offering it at nearly half the price we have sold it at before. Previous vintages of the Deltetto Arneis single vineyard have sold for $18.99 (that’s 42% more than today’s offer). Don’t hesitate or you will likely miss out on this great deal!" -Jim Knight, The Wine House (3/9/17)

FROM THE IMPORTER

As you drive up from La Morra or Alba you inevitably come upon the Winery Deltetto. The family Deltetto and this truly magical district of Piedmont go hand in hand. In the region they are respected not only for the quality of their Spumanti, Italy’s finest, but also what they stand for: tradition and dedication to their beloved Roero region. Antonio’s father, Carlo, began his quest after World War II as Italy was reemerging. In fact, he was a fruit farmer at the time; his peaches and pears were highly sought after in the local markets. However, his desire to pursue grape growing was stronger, moving him to ask local elders about the sites in Roero that made the best wine before the great wars which so disrupted the region. For Carlo it was the indigenous grapes of his home-Arneis, Nebbiolo, Pinonero and Barbera-that he wanted to rise up; so he listened, studied and walked the region. The result was the kernel of the Deltetto family holdings: the finest vines in Santo Stefano Roero, Canale and Castellinaldo.
