Most Soave is made quickly and sold cheaply. This one comes from sixty-year-old vines trained high on pergolas, on dark basalt at the top of the Classico zone. A year on its lees gives it a texture closer to Burgundy than to most Italian whites.
How it tastes
Almond, ripe pear and a little honey, with a salty finish.
