Bradisismo (Italian for seismic land subsidence) is Inama's prestige selection from the oldest basalt-grown Garganega vines, aged 18-24 months in French barriques; arguably the most complex Soave available, with extraordinary tension between rich oak ageing and the grape's saline mineral core.

What it pairs with

• Lobster risotto with saffron The wine's richness and saline mineral backbone perfectly anchor the luxury of lobster and saffron risotto.More wines for lobster →
• White truffle egg pasta White truffle's mineral-honey character harmonises with Bradisismo's hazelnut-volcanic register.More wines for truffles →

With cheese

Monte Veronese Our pick Monte Veronese is a semi-cooked cow's-milk cheese from the Verona mountains, delicate when young and slightly piquant with age. A Soave Superiore, a medium-bodied Garganega-based white with high acidity, has the weight for the paste and cuts its fat. Asiago d'Allevo Our pick Asiago d'Allevo Mezzano is compact with sweet notes, turning savoury and grainy as it ages. Garganega fermented or aged in oak barriques has a rounder texture that matches the firm paste, and its high acidity keeps the pairing fresh.

History

Bradisismo was created as Inama's top-tier single-selection Garganega from the oldest volcanic-soil vines in the Foscarino area, extended oak ageing pushing the wine into luxury white wine territory. The name references the slow volcanic ground movement that characterises the Soave Classico subsoil.
