ORGANICALLY FARMED
100% Garganega
DECANTER WORLD WINE AWARDS 97 POINTS - "Gorgeous swathes of succulent melon, pineapple and pear overlay a chorus of burgeoning smoky minerals. Ample and sapid with a delightful purity of fruit, a rippling freshness and a breath-taking floral character on the finish. Outstanding!"
WINE ENTHUSIAST 94 POINTS - "This Soave is a charmer, with aromas of bruised apples and yellow flowers and a touch of caramelized lemon peel that grab the attention quickly. On the palate, tastes dance across the tongue with flavors of McIntosh apple skin, peach and a squeeze of lemon that adds brightness and lift. A salty note emerges, like a whisper of the sea, along with a hint of preserved lemon that lifts the palate even more with each sip. Built to age, its flavors will evolve and deepen over time providing an experience worth the wait. Drink now–2045. — Jeff Porter"
