"An Italian cuvée that has captured the soul of Soave according to Wine Enthusiast!"
"Every year, Pieropan captures the soul of Soave, Garganega and vintage in a way so pure it leaves us breathless. This vintage shines with aromas of Fuji pear, Anjou apple, lemon blossom and gunflint. The palate is lively, with flavors of green apple peel and lemon zest that give way to toasted almonds, acacia honey and a minerality so deep you'd think you were in a quarry. Drink now or until 2040. (Wine Enthusiast 2024)
