Monte Fiorentine Soave Classico Garganega


Initially very light, but this Soave is not boring. More serious then anticipated with fleshy pear, earthy mushroom, and minerality. This is a hillside sourced Monteforte d' Alpone that brings moderate+ acid and length to the finish.

Crisp tree fruit with lemon pith. Raw mushroom and earthy edge. A healthy dose of acid.

Lemon and mushroom with crisp acidity. This is a great wine in its youth but reaches a new level with age. Do yourself a favor and try to sit on a bottle for a few years. Worth the wait!

A bit young, green apple and some cut grass followed by white flowers, some peachy aromas, minerals as well. Just enough acidity.

Slightly dry expected a bit more fruit but decent with oily food as it cuts through
