2023 Contra Soarda Breganze Vespaiolo Bianco DOC

From the Winery:
Soarda Vespaiolo wine is crafted from a meticulous selection of high-quality Vespaiola grapes, grown in vineyards characterized by predominantly volcanic soils enriched with traces of alluvial deposits. These mineral-rich soils impart the wine with a unique structure and an unmistakable aromatic complexity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, following a spontaneous, temperature-controlled process that is extended over time to fully extract the precious aromatic compounds of the fruit while preserving the authentic identity of the varietal.

The Soarda Vespaiolo delights with vibrant and fresh aromas: notes of Meyer lemon, tangelo, pineapple, and honeysuckle, enhanced by subtle hints of lime leaf. On the palate, the wine presents itself as bright and harmonious, with a texture composed of citrus oils that evolve into delicate nuances of lemon, pear, and tart apricot. The long, persistent finish is distinguished by a minerality reminiscent of the damp gray of stones.
