Cantina di Soave Rocca Sveva Soave Classico

In the glass

Aroma: white peach, almond blossom, citrus zest, white flower

Palate: lemon zest, almond, white peach, light mineral

The cooperative's entry-level Soave Classico DOC provides excellent access to the appellation's almond-blossom Garganega character at very accessible price; clean, fresh and food-versatile.

What it pairs with

• Seafood fritto misto
  The wine's crisp acidity and light mineral freshness are a classic match for deep-fried mixed seafood.
• Caprese salad with buffalo mozzarella
  The delicate white wine doesn't compete with the fresh dairy and tomato flavours.
