Damilano has been working in Barolo since 1890, one of the oldest names in a zone that doesn't hand out longevity easily, and that same Piedmontese instinct shows up in their whites. Straw yellow, with a delicate bouquet that leans fresh and fruity, then a dry palate carried by moderate acidity into something elegantly harmonic through the mid-palate. Over a century of Barolo pedigree, poured white and easygoing.

Wine Advocate“Here's another delightfully fresh and easy-drinking Arneis to add to the region's growing collection. The Damilano 2021 Langhe Arneis (with 50,000 bottles made) is luminous and bright with plenty of citrus, white flower and honeydew melon. I can imagine a happy pairing with grilled shrimp in a Thai coconut sauce.”
About the Producer
The Damilano name carries with it more than 100 years of winemaking history in the heart of Italy's most dynamic, competitive, and prestigious wine zone; Barolo. Damilano is one of the oldest wineries in Barolo, dating back to 1890, when Giuseppe Borgogno started cultivating grapes and producing wine from his own vineyards. Giacomo Damilano, the founder’s son-in-law, took over the winery operation in 1935. Giacomo grew the business, and improved the general quality of both the vinification system and the vineyards, turning the winery into a “jewel” of the Langhe area.
