The liveliest and most youthful style from Soave Classico, the Pieropan family has been producing this wine since the early 1900’s. Generous, pleasingly fresh and versatile, it is made from the traditional varieties of Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave grown in family-owned vineyards situated in the Soave Classico zone. Stelvin cap.
Grape variety: Garganega 85%, Trebbiano di Soave 15%
Vinification: The grapes are destemmed and crushed in a protective environment. Free run juice is fermented at low temperatures (between 14-18°C) in glass-lined cement tanks. The wine remains in glass-lined cement tanks on the fine lees for a period which varies according to the vintage. In the spring following the harvest, the wine is bottled and then released after at least a further month in bottle.
Tasting notes: Brilliant pale lemon colour. The nose is delicate, with reminiscent aromas of almond blossoms and marzipan. Good fruit concentration on the palate, nicely balanced by a zesty acidity that enhances its long finish.
Food pairing: soups, starters, courgette, egg-based dishes or seafood and fresh water fish dishes. It is an excellent aperitif, especially when served with simple canapé.
Alcohol content: 12% vol.
Serving temperature: 10-12°C
