La Froscà Soave Classico Garganega
Soave, Verona, Veneto, Italy
This bottle a bit leesy and aromatically muted/closed. Good texture but decidedly un fruity.

The 2016 Soave Classico La Froscà is rich and alluring with notes of dried peach, sweet white flowers and honeyed almonds. It displays wonderful clarity and poise while stimulating the senses with bright acids and minerals before settling on ripe orchard fruits. A twang of sour citrus and apricot resonates throughout the long and almost salty finish. I tasted the 2016 over the course of two days and it only got better each time I revisited it. The La Froscà matures in a combination of 80% steel tanks and 20% barriques, yet there’s not a hint of wood here. (Eric Guido, Vinous February 2021)

Good Soave at a reasonable price. Crisp acidity but too lemony in the finish for my taste. Lemon fans will like it.
