Monte Grande Soave Classico Garganega
Soave, Verona, Veneto, Italy
School boy error here. Finished over half the bottle before we realised that we had over chilled it. Far more complex and interesting with a light chill.

Golden delicious, fennel. Still adolescent, but didn’t suck with lobster and drawn butter

Purchased because I was promised some botrytis influence and dried honey notes in any form always make me very happy. Monte Grande could easily go unnoticed but if you stop for a minute, you'll find a basket of textures and aromas.
More amber imagery than the color suggests. Just a glint of copper or rose gold. Notes of honey and hazelnut and fudgey dates, with baked apple and pear and sour pineapple and starfruit. Supremely acidic and balanced cream makes this comfortable.
Serve this to me blind and I'd call it Chenin.

2nd of 4 wines with Marc Vetri as guest chef at Tavernetta. Very tasty. Sort of like lemony yellow apples. A really good match with the Rabbit Papardelle. #tavernetta
