Pieropan Soave Classico 2024

Brilliant pale lemon colour Perfume: The nose is delicate, with reminiscent aromas of almond blossoms and marzipan. Fresh and floral with hints of vine, cherry and elder flowers, and of fresh fruit such as pear and white peach. Palate: Smooth, with good fruit concentration, nicely balanced by a zesty acidity that enhances its long finish

Pair with starters, soups and first-courses especially vegetable-based such as asparagus, peas, courgette; egg-baseddishes or paired with seafood and fresh water fish dishes. It is an excellent aperitif, especially when servedwith simple canapés.

In a screw-cap bottle, the organic Pieropan 2024 Soave Classico is a favorite bottle from Northern Italy for very good reason. This simple expression of Garganega (blended with 15% Trebbiano di Soave for extra richness) offers nice freshness, mineral tones and sweet primary fruit that recalls freshly cut apple and white peach. This was not an easy vintage by any stretch, but this white wine comes out fighting. The Pieropan family does a terrific job with this entry-level release of 560,000 bottles. The grapes are sourced over 60 hectares on volcanic soils, and the wine sees a brief five to six months in cement tank. The process is simple and easy, and the wine is delicious.
