95 points “Full of restrained fresh apricot fruit in a kind of Marsanne-Roussanne style. Lemon-leaf freshness dried banana and the toastiness of the oak on the nose silky and delicate with moderate yet refreshing acidity; vibrant and imperceptibly tannic.” – Decanter Magazine
Founded in the 1880s in the heart of the terracotta-roofed flower-festooned and vineyard-surrounded medieval village of Soave Pieropan is the yardstick against which other producers in the region are judged. This lush green paradise topped with its crenelated 10th Century castle is impossible not to fall in love with much like Pieropan’s extra special Soave.
The Soave Classico La Rocca is Pieropan’s richest and most exotic wine made entirely from grapes harvested on their own vineyard located on the limestone outcrop beneath the castle. Pure Garganega and the ripest of fruit La Rocca is one of the most intensely tropical spicy and nutty Soaves imaginable. Serve it alongside complex dishes like mild curries roasted squash risotto scattered with crispy sage leaves and toasted hazelnuts crab creamy salmon pasta and quinoa bowls with exotic fruits.
