Every year, year after year, consistently satisfying. Number 1 wine in the world according to wine spec a few years back! That ain't too shabby. Ripe stone fruit and slate with a dribble of petroleum... Sounds like an oil change!

Hints of raw almond rise up from the 2020 Soave Classico, with honeydew melon, apple and sweet white flowers. It’s glycerol-like in texture, complicated by zesty citrus and acids counterbalancing ripe apricot and pear. The finish is persistent, fresh and perfumed. $24.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, June 2021)

Stone fruit, orchard fruit. Crisp. Clean. This vintage punches WAY above its price point - be advised.

Classic, fabulous, and a steal. Ripe apricot, zesty lemon peel, and super refreshing.

A fun, typical Soave. Kaffir lime leaf and a nice bitter almond finish.
