A clean, crisp nose of green apples with just a hint of almond opens this even, nicely balanced white. It’s what a classic Soave is supposed to be—light, dry and refreshing. Slightly brisk. The long finish takes on a mineral, stony note.

Round, floral and chunky, with creamed corn and honey aromas. The palate begins with smoky citrus and honey and then veers to melon. It’s a bit soft and mealy in the middle, but it should hold one’s interest.

This Soave Classico opens with intense aromas of banana, pear, pineapple and ripe melon. The aromas are on the mature and heavy side, but the wine does deliver more freshness in the mouth. Drink now.
