Soave Classico Garganega

Unscrewed and used to cook with while I poured a glass for myself; enjoyed over the course of three days. Consistent throughout though the nose showed a but more complexity on Day 2 and Day 3. The 2023 Soave Classico pours a pale straw color with medium viscosity, and no signs of particles or gas. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Bosc pear, honeydew melon, Juicy Fruit®️, white and yellow flowers, rocky earth and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium acidity. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and zippy. For me, this is such a wonderfully versatile wine. It’s available at Whole Foods for under $15 and a perfect wine to enjoy and not feel bad to deglaze a pan while I’m making sauce for malloreddus. Yum! Drink now and over the next handful of years, if you must.

Dependably good. Nose has straw, meadow flowers, apple skins and bright pear. Bone dry, with a persistent but very subtle bitter note throughout. Different in the mouth than those nose suggests. Nice.

Unscrewed and poured; enjoyed over two days with consistent results. The 2022 pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of yellow flowers, Cuties™️, hot steel and rocky minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with sneaky medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. There’s a somewhat waxy texture. The finish is long and savory. A charming Soave Classico. Drink now.

Always good and a bit flabby.

always delicious and a steal for the money.

Minerality. Great volcanic wine.

Savory and saline

Red apple, peach, dried apricot, green mango, white flowers, parsley, dried oregano and honey.
Apple, guava and dill.

Classic, a benchmark of the variety. #allsummerlong

One of the classics. The entry level is a little lacking in concentration though. The single vineyards are definitely worth the small $ increase.
