Pieropan
True pioneers of the Soave region, the Pieropan family introduced the concept of single vineyard wines long before it became de rigeur – the La Rocca cuvee was one of the first single vineyard wines in Italy when it was created in 1977. Their Soave Classicos are grown on hillside plots of volcanic soils. They recognise the intrinsic potential of Garganega, planted here since Roman times, which retains its acidity when the grapes are ripe and expresses terroir wonderfully.

Vinous (88)Bight pale straw. Almost pungent herbal nuances to the aromas of citrus fruit and apple. Then herbal and tactile with good weight to the orchard fruit and botanical herb flavors but comes across as a little simple, even a touch bitter at the back. |

James Suckling (94)The 50th anniversary vintage. The first single vineyard white wine of Italy. Tuffeau and basalt. Calvarino is fermented in cement rather than the tank, as is used for the Classico. A broader sash of orchard fruits, verging toward toffee apple, mingle with ginger, orange blossom, rosemary, sage, almond and jasmine. 20-30% Trebbiano di Soave due to its affinity with volcanic soils. Saline and sappy, whilst also resinous and intense. A powerful wine that is paradoxically pixelated of detail, immensely saline and beautifully light on its feet. The sort of wine I challenge anyone not to love. Drinkable now, but best from 2025. |

James Suckling (95)Aromas of chamomile, dried pineapple, preserved lemon, toasted almond and beeswax. It’s medium-to full-bodied with tangy acidity. So concentrated, layered and phenolic. Keeps going. Yet, it remains agile and vivid. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. |
