Apple-y, ripe, medium-body white
Grape: Garganega.
Region: Italy> Veneto.
Notes: Sustainable farming.


Soave is arguably the most famous white-wine title in Italy. A dry, crisp, fruity white wine, Soave's naturally refreshing appeal led it to phenomenal popularity in the second half of the 20th century. Soave Superiore is the DOCG title given to wines from the appellation's highest-quality tier. Ranked one of the top 10 Soave Superiore by critics, this Soave exhibits rich, layered flavors with a burst of baked golden apples and ripe peach aromas. “A lovely discovery from a new young wine grower. Very mineral with some peachy notes on the nose. And on the palate, very firm and mineral, with stony fruit. Pure Garganega vinified in stainless steel”, Decanter Magazine notes.

Food Pairing: (think Venice) seafood, shellfish, white meats with cream or light sauce.
