Soave, Verona, Veneto, Italy
Treated myself to a little pre-dinner beverage while preparing a huge pan of mixed greens. This is one heckuva Soave. Nose shows loads of ripe orchard fruit, lots of fresh straw, meadow flowers, super-clean stoney minerality. In the mouth it’s intense but dry and fresh, even in year 6. A little reminiscent of a Semillon-heavy white Bordeaux. Really nice length, balance, and texture.

Insanely delicious. Almonds and stone fruit. Reminds me of a Northern Rhône wine.
