KERIN O'KEEFE 95 POINTS - "Aromas of lychee, botanical herb, summer orchard fruit and wet stone come to the forefront on the stunning 2024 Soave Classico Calvarino. Even in an extremely challenging vintage like 2024, it shows its trademark of class, finesse, depth and mineral-driven tension, delivering flavors of white peach, honeydew melon, lemon drop and saline mineral notes before closing on a hint of honeyed almond. Vibrant acidity keeps it energized and balanced. One of Italy's most age-worthy whites, this will offer a decade or more of fine sipping. Drink through 2036."

This lovely white has an amazing "wow" factor that explains the stellar scores it received. The depth and purity of ripe fruit in both mouth and nose is stunning, while the structure of body keeps the wine light and spry in the mouth. We, doing our due diligence to make sure these wine critics aren't pulling a fast one, of course had to open a bottle and take our own notes. They called it correctly! This is a white wine we will enjoy year-round but its freshness, vibrance and amazing fruits pair perfectly with Spring and Easter dining (ham, chicken/poultry, sushi, vegetarian, white pizzas, etc.).
