Brilliant straw yellow color with greenish hints. The delicate nose is reminiscent of almond blossoms and marzipan. Good depth of fruit on the palate, nicely balanced by a zingy acidity that enhances its long length.
This wine makes an excellent partner for soups, starters, especially vegetable based such as asparagus, peas, courgette, egg-based dishes or seafood and fresh water fish dishes. It is an excellent aperitif, especially when served with simple canapés.
Critic Ratings
James Suckling Review – Rated 92:
A vibrant, medium-bodied white with aromas of lemon, green apple, pineapple, elder flowers and lime curd. Bright and creamy, with succulent ripe fruit. From organically grown grapes.
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate Review – Rated 92:
In a screw-cap bottle, the organic Pieropan 2021 Soave Classico (a blend of unoaked 85% Garganega and 15% Trebbiano di Soave) is fresh and bright throughout. This pretty wine shows lots of zest and energy, and these qualities live up to the best of Soave Classico grown in this fascinating territory of mostly volcanic origin. In a vintage like 2021, you get amazing focus and precision in these extremely food-friendly wines.
Wine Spectator Review – Rated 90:
This vivacious white dances on the palate, with a lively, zesty edge to the appealing flavors of crunchy pear, blood orange, stony mineral and almond blossom. Garganega and Trebbiano.
