Gini Soave Classico

In the glass

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

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

Gini's estate Soave Classico 100% Garganega captures the family's 17th-century vine heritage in a fresh, mineral, everyday expression; the racy acidity and almond-blossom purity of the volcanic Monteforte basalt terroir at an accessible price.

What it pairs with

• Soft-shell crab with herb aioli
  The wine's racy acidity and mineral freshness are ideal for fried crab and herb aioli.
• Insalata di mare (seafood salad)
  Light, mineral, acidic Soave is the natural match for Venetian chilled seafood salad.

History

Gini's estate Soave Classico is the entry-level expression from the family's Monteforte d'Alpone basalt vineyards, available at accessible pricing and representing the consistent quality of one of Soave's most respected estates.
