Anselmi San Vincenzo 2023

Veneto, ItalyRoberto Anselmi gave up on Soave years ago when the wines bearing the Soave label went commercial, diluting quality in favour of quantity. That said, fans of Soave have embraced the IGT Anselmi wines, made with a mix of local varieties, including the fungus-resistant PIWI grapes souvignier gris, aromera and riesling resistente, as well as sauvignon blanc, garganega, chardonnay, goldtraminer, pinot bianco and manzoni bianco grown high atop a hill in one of Soaveā€™s top growing areas on volcanic and calcareous soil. The fermentation is in stainless steel, and the juice sits on its lees for a few months with regular stirring. Expect a citrus-nutty white wine with notes of red currants, yellow fruits, and just the right amount of acidity to keep it linear and fresh. It is a versatile food wine you can serve with a pesto vegetable pasta dish or your favourite sushi roll.Tasted: 05 September 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
