Viticulture

Exceptional care is taken in the vineyard, with the use of natural sulphurous agents to protect the vines. No weeding is practiced with only manual or mechanical mowing between rows. All grapes are meticulously hand-harvested to ensure optimal selection and quality.

​

Winemaking

Following the harvest, grapes are gently transported in small crates and soft-pressed immediately upon arrival at the cellar. The must is naturally separated from the skins by gravity flow.

​

Fermentation takes place at controlled low temperatures in stainless steel tanks, preserving the wine’s aromatic integrity. To prevent malolactic fermentation and retain freshness, the wine is then stored at +4°C.

2023 Vintage report

2023 presented a balanced growing season, benefiting from timely rainfall and moderate temperatures. Spring began with adequate rainfall, replenishing water reserves after the dry 2022 vintage and bud break occurred on time in April. Summer was challenging, seeing periods of intense heat especially in September. The harvest started slightly sooner than usual in early September for Arneis, followed by Barbera in mid-to-late September. The fruit was healthy, with small, concentrated berries.

Profile

The Langhe Arneis DOC 2023 from Tenuta Il Finale captures the essence of Piemonte, a region famed for its PGI hazelnuts, prized white truffles and culinary heritage. Sourced from a sustainably farmed, northwest-facing vineyard in Neviglie at 460m above sea level, this expressive white wine is both elegant and terroir-driven. Delicate handling and cool fermentation result in a vibrant and aromatic profile, with lifted floral notes and a crisp, refined finish.

​

Pairing

Best enjoyed chilled at 10–12°C, this versatile Arneis pairs beautifully with fresh salads, delicate fish dishes, pan-seared poultry and light appetisers — striking the perfect balance between sophistication and approachability.
