Tasting note
Bright straw yellow with golden reflections, offering an elegant bouquet of ripe peach, pear and apricot, complemented by delicate floral notes of elderflower and hints of sage and mint. The palate is generous yet fresh, with a rounded texture, lively acidity and subtle minerality. A beautifully balanced Soave with a persistent, gently savoury finish.
Viticulture
100% Garganega. The vines are Pergola-Veronese trained, with a planting density of 3000 plants per hectare and are on average 40 years old. The grapes for the Soave Vintage come from vineyards in the Soave hills. The very complex soils are of calcareous origin with a clay-loam texture.
Vinification
About 40% of grapes are picked in September’s third week, crushed and fermented off skins; the rest are selected in late October and fermented on skins at 20°C for 15 days. Both wines are blended, then aged on lees in concrete vats after alcoholic fermentation, allowing slow maturation under stable temperature conditions and with micro-oxygenation.
Food Match
Good on fish dishes, pasta with white meat sauces, but also tomato sauces. Ideal for white meat dishes.
