Suavia Soave Classico 2022

This vibrant dry white wine originates from Italy, within Veneto and the historic Soave Classico appellation. Suavia is an estate managed by the Tessari sisters—Meri, Valentina, and Alessandra—whose family has cultivated vines in the high altitude volcanic hills of Fittà since the late nineteenth century. Dedicated exclusively to native white grape varieties, the estate operates under certified organic farming principles, focusing on sustainable viticulture that highlights the distinct basaltic soils and cool microclimate of their northern Soave Classico vineyards.

Wine Description

This 2022 vintage displays a brilliant straw yellow colour with subtle green reflections in the glass. The nose offers an inviting, aromatic bouquet of fresh white flowers, jasmine, green apple, and white peach, accompanied by delicate vegetal undertones and a distinct volcanic mineral character. On the palate, it is crisp, juicy, and beautifully balanced, offering flavours of ripe yellow citrus, pear, and subtle orchard fruit. A vibrant acidity and soft texture are anchored by a savoury, saline minerality that leads to a clean, refreshing finish. Crafted as a 100% Garganega single varietal expression, the hand harvested grapes underwent temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel, followed by 5 months of aging on fine lees. The wine carries an alcohol by volume of 12.0% and is certified organic.

Food Pairing

The bright acidity and refreshing minerality of this Soave Classico make it a versatile pairing choice. It serves as an ideal aperitif and pairs effortlessly with fresh seafood, pan seared scallops, grilled white fish, and octopus. It also complements lighter vegetable dishes, pea risotto, gnocchi, light poultry, and fresh goat cheese or soft cheeses.
