Brilliant and intense yellow whit golden hints. Aromas reminiscent of exotic fruit and nuts on the nose. Soft and persistent on the palate, with hints of spice, length and elegance.Makes an excellent partner to complex dishes, even with strong flavors particularly risottos such as porcini, or celery, squash and almond, salt cod and other fish including salmon, scallops and crab.
Aaron’s Notes
Bright yellow with golden hues of straw. Aromas of tropical fruits and floral notes. Silky textures are balanced with a touch of acidity. Bright , crisp and refreshing. Stone fruit, white peach are intertwined with a touch of white pepper and wet stone. Pair this wine with a nice summer squash risotto or grilled white fish.
The vineyard ‘La Rocca’ is situated on the Monte Rocchetta hill, just below the mediaeval castle built by the Scaligeri family in the town of Soave. The microclimate in this vineyard produces wines with a unique perfume and distinctive taste. The grapes are picked when very ripe, often as late as the end of October, giving tremendous complexity and aromatic qualities to the wine, making it a wine of great breeding.

Fragrant notes of lime blossoms and spices waft through the layers of creamed apple, melon, lemon curd and toasted hazelnut on display in this bright and expressive white. This light- to medium-bodied version offers a plush creaminess on the palate that’s reined in nicely by well-honed acidity. Drink now through 2030. 4,166 cases made, 616 cases imported.
