Moderate ( + ) intense aromas of white stone fruit, grape, lemongrass, honey blossom and some tropical notes (unripe pineapple), stones.
Dry palate, with a high acidity, medium bodied palate with a pronounced intensity and linear mineral backbone. Great performance considering the price

This Soave Classico has quite a yellow-gold color in the glass. The nose has aromas of apricot, Meyer lemon and minerals, but with an overriding earthiness to it. The palate delivers great minerality, apricot and lemon zest in the full mouthfeel. Acidity zings and leaves its calling card on the lengthy finish.

May 1st, 2021If I look tired, well who isn’t tired this year has been a million years long which is probably why I’ve wanted lively wines, but ones with intellect. Like the people that know how to have funny energy discussing serious things...is this the John Oliver of wine? It banters of both salted dried peach and bushes encountered on a Midwest hike and lemon conserve. It’s fresh but deep. Like the discourse I’d like to have with like minds.

Jan 12th, 2021The single vineyard Calvarino is a bargain, well worth every penny. Candied lemon, stone fruit, very floral with blossom and elderflower and a stony background. Fresh acidity with good fruit intensity, strong mid palate and a salty finish.

May 28th, 2020This is probably 60 percent as good as the 2013 I had recently. Still, I cant go below 9.1.

May 11th, 2020In excellent form already. Better out of the ice bucket for sure. More fat than the base level Soave but lots more structure too.

Aug 28th, 2019This was such a joy to share. White peach, minerals and a richness that was palpable...and lasted on the palate. Bravo!
