Soave Classico DOC Calvarino 2022 Pieropan

The Soave Classico Calvarino di Pieropan was born in the homonymous vineyard, located in the heart of the classic Soave area, in Veneto.

It is mainly produced with Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave grapes, rigorously harvested by hand with a double passage to select only the most ripe grapes. Once the destemming and pressing are carried out, the must ferments at a controlled temperature of 16-18 ° C in vitrified cement tanks. Subsequently, the wine ages in the same tanks for about a year, remaining in contact with the fine lees to enrich its structure and complexity. After bottling it rests in the bottle for a few months before being marketed.

Calvarino is a straw yellow wine, enriched with bright gold-green reflections. The nose opens with fresh and floral hints and a bouquet that ranges from notes of elderberry to aromas of Limoncella apple and pear, with a background of hazelnut and almond. In the mouth it is fresh, elegant and fruity, very well balanced, with a return of hints of Limoncella apple. The finish is pleasantly long and persistent.

Perfect as an aperitif, it is ideal in combination with vegetable pies, delicate fish, shellfish and cheese soufflé. Also perfect with a typical dish of the Veronese tradition, risotto with asparagus.
