2019 Pieropan 'Calvarino' Soave Classico Veneto
Winemaker Notes: Pale straw yellow, with greenish reflections when young; golden with ageing. The aroma is fresh, flowery with aromas of elder, lemon and cherry. The palate is dry, well balanced and elegant, with tremendous length and finesse.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
Wine Enthusiast - "Enticingly fragrant, this gorgeous wine offers aromas of white spring flowers, ripe stone fruit and honeydew. The elegantly structured palate delivers creamy white peach, lemon drop candy, white almond and tangy saline mineral notes. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced. Drink through 2029."
James Suckling - "Gooseberry and apple pie on the nose and palate with white flower petals and a fascinating rose-water, almost turkish-delight note. Full, round and very silky with fresh acidity driving the complex flavors. Long, tight and so focused. Saline aftertaste. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."
Wine Spectator - "Enticing spice and dried flower notes draw you into the glass of this creamy white, which features chiseled acidity well-knit to flavors of Honeycrisp apple, salted almond and poached apricot. Lasting, mineral-driven finish. Garganega and Trebbiano. Drink now through 2029."
