A bright, crunchy, "sapid" Soave with perceptible mineral flavour and impressive acidic structure. Above average...

As juicy and forthright as Pieropan’s garganega has ever been with really purposeful acidity to back up every point...

Clearly not as profound or sublime as Pieropan's single vineyard La Rocca, but nonetheless an excellent Soave in its own right. Great value here. Expressive lemon, honey, minerality, almond and spice. A pleasantly creamy mouthfeel with bright acidity and excellent length. April 2018.

I'll go with the consensus on this one. Very enjoyable. Took me a while to open this bottle, but lineups at the LCBO mean that I am working my way through the back-log.

Ripe tropical fruit, pink grapefruit aromas with good intensity. It's medium+ bodied on the palate with a crunchy palate, bright acids and nice aroma replays plus some honeysuckle notes giving an impression of sweetness. The finish length is very good. An above-average, food-friendly Soave. Tasted June/2017.
