"A restrained wine with aromas of stone fruit, lemon leaves and white pepper. The attack is forthright, with a light body and a fragrant, crisp and polished finish full of citrus notes. Drink now."

"The 2024 Soave Classico entices with a pretty mix of crushed yellow apples, rosemary and sweet smoke. It reverberates with zesty tension as crisp orchard fruits mingle with sour citrus tones over a core of stimulating acidity. This wine leaves the cheeks puckered and mouth watering for more through the medium-length and crisply refreshing finale."

"The custodian of the oldest vines in Soave, a great many pre-phylloxera centurions, while the majority are circa 70-years-old. All tank fermented. Exemplary Soave classico, with white pepper, jasmine, glazed quince and peach pith, steely and dry, careening along a rail of saline mineral perk. Breadth, freshness, vinosity and phenolics, serving as a sheath of compression to the sheer intensity of the house style. Drink or hold."

"Flavors of golden apple and yellow pear feel round and ripe, tinged with a note of singed orange peel. Subtle acidity infuses the wine's rich texture, drawing out the flavors as hints of smoke and subtle spice emerge on the finish."

"The 2022 Soave Classico wafts up from the glass with an airy and inviting blend of wildflowers, fresh mint and crushed apples. This opens with soft textures and salty mineral tones that saturate while citrus-tinged orchard fruits cascade throughout. This tapers off with tension and freshness, at the same time puckering the cheeks and forcing the mouth to water for more as perfumed inner florals slowly fade. The Gini Soave Classico always represents amazing value."

"Pithy and bright, with the producer™s telltale demure fruit and stony texture. Pithy, delicious and beautifully saline. A mid-weighted expression that prizes phenolics as much as freshness, this is a textbook opening act. Drink or hold."
