Pieropan Soave Classico 2022, 375ml
This is the freshest, youngest wine in the Pieropan family range. It is made entirely from fruit grown in their own vineyards situated in the Soave Classico zone and planted only with indigenous grape varieties.
A blend of 85% Garganega: and 15% Trebbiano di Soave, planted in volcanic soils facing west.
The grapes are destemmed and crushed with the free run juice fermented separately between 14-18°C in glass-lined cement tanks. The wine remains in glass-lined cement tanks on the fine lees for 5-9 months. In the spring following the harvest the wine is bottled and then released after at least a further month in bottle.
Tasting note:
This elegant wine is a classic and standard bearer of Soave. It shines with aromas of ripe Fuji apple, orange blossom, marzipan and lemon oil. Cool and crisp on the palate as if biting into a perfect apple, this wine shines with amazing textural depth and finishes with vibrant acidity
