Suavia
Soave Classico Garganega
The 2021 Soave Classico wafts up with a wildly fresh bouquet, blending sweet smoke with crushed rocks, pear and lemon oil. It's silky and refined, ripe in style, yet perfectly balanced with lime-tinged orchard fruits and a touch of exotic inner florals toward the close. The 2021 cleans up beautifully, crisp and refreshing with a mineral tinge, adding tension as chamomile hints slowly taper off. (Eric Guido, Vinous, March 2023)

Mar 23rd, 2023The 2020 Soave Classico is remarkably pretty, perfumed and refined, with crushed apple and chamomile complemented by dusty florals. It finds a balanced middle ground between succulent ripe fruits and zesty acids, as its silken textures soothe the palate. A flourish of salty minerals and sweet florals seals the deal, as the 2020 tapers off long yet fresh. This is a lovely entry-level Soave. Well done. (Eric Guido, Vinous, April 2022)

Another pretty Italian white, this Soave opens with a nose of white flowers, yellow apple, white peach, and sea salt, continues to a palate of apple, melon, granite, tarragon, saltiness, blanched almonds, and ends with a tingly chalkiness and spice redolent of white pepper. Refreshing and thought-provoking it’s an attractive sip!
