Gini La Froscà Soave Classico 2015

Soave, Verona, Veneto, ItalyGini's wines are amongst the highest regarded in Soave. This organic garganega is from the Froscà cru, planted in 1955. This historic, 6 hectare vineyard is planted on calcareous and tuffaceous volcanic soils. Native ferment an aging is split between stainless steel and small oak casks. Quite concentrated and rich, yet with a welcome lightness still on the (12.5 degree) palate. Honeysuckle, white peach, apricot blossoms, and waves of ginger ride the creamy palate, aloft with a buzz of stony minerality, to a spiced finish. A masterful showing of Soave, worthy of Classico, and its cru. 1666 cases produced.Tasted: 14 August 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
