Soave, Verona, Veneto, ItalyGarganega can be a bit of crapshoot at the best of times, but in the hands of a serious producer, it can be an experience you won’t regret. Lower yields impart a fresh citrus, honey nose and palate to this Soave that is clearly better than the pack. Best of all is the freshness and minerality that allows the wine to soar in your mouth. Creamy cheese, spaghetti olio, butter clams all work here. Ready to drink.Tasted: 17 July 2019Tasted by: Prices:

Soave, Verona, Veneto, ItalyFrom one of the leading organic farmers of the region, these 70 year old garganega vines are grown on volcanic and limestone soils in the historic hillsides of Soave Classico, 100-200m in altitude. After a native ferment, this spends six months on the lees in small stainless barrels, with no MLF. This carries the Classico weight, with honeysuckle, river stones and a grip of mineral salts running the sides to a lightly spiced finish. The soils and light touch are felt on the palate, one that skips along the slim frame to the end. New classic.Tasted: 14 August 2019Tasted by: Prices:
