Soave Classico DOC La Rocca 2022 Pieropan

The Soave Classico La Rocca di Pieropan was born in the homonymous vineyard located on the Monte Rocchetta hill, close to the medieval castle of the town of Soave.

It is produced with 100% Garganega grapes, harvested exclusively by hand with a double passage to select only the most ripe grapes. After destemming and crushing, the grapes are left to macerate briefly, then the must ferments in barrels at a controlled temperature of 16-18 ° C. The wine ages in wood for about 12 months in contact with the noble dregs, to give complexity and richness to the bouquet, and rests in the bottle before being marketed.

It has a sunny yellow color, with an intense and bright hue. The bouquet is rich and broad, with hints of ripe fruit among which notes of melon and mango stand out, with a light spicy undertone. The taste is full, round and velvety, with a perfect balance between fruity sensations and acidity. The finish is pleasantly long and persistent.

Perfect to accompany risotto with porcini mushrooms, it is ideal in combination with fish-based courses, in particular salmon and cod, seafood and shellfish.
