Suavia Soave Classico Garganega 2022
Soave, Verona, Veneto, ItalyRespected Italian exporter Neil Empson has been unearthing wine gems from his Milano base for nearly three decades. Years ago, he spoke of Suavia Soave as a wine he places “on a similar level to Soave superstar Pieropan.” Unlike most Soave that contains a considerable percentage of trebbiano, the Suavia is made entirely from garganega, and is stainless steel fermented. The fruit comes from 60 year old vines grown over 12 hectares of multiple vineyard sites containing calcareous and volcanic soils. The nose and flavours are a mix of lime juice, citrus, and salinity, with a twist of butter that is simple and delicious. The back label says it all: it’s a wine for bars with umbrellas and tables on the cobbles of an old illuminated piazza. Pour me a bottle of spring pasta, or fresh seafood.Tasted: 11 April 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $26.95 | 750ml |
