Pieropan 'La Rocca' Soave Classico 2019 is a single vineyard expression of Garganega from Veneto. Vineyard altitudes push towards 200m above sea level. 

The grapes are hand-harvested, de-stemmed and crushed, with a little bit of skin contact pre-fermentation. Some of the juice is transferred to stainless and the rest to old oak for full ferment. What really makes this wine is the extended lees ageing, 15 months and then extra ageing in bottle. 

Once poured, the aromas of ripe tropical fruit just jump out of the glass. Golden hue, lots of concentration and texture with a lot of spice, nut and cream. Long and scented length and extremely food-friendly!
