"The custodian of the oldest vines in Soave, a great many pre-phylloxera centurions, while the majority are circa 70-years-old. All tank fermented. Exemplary Soave classico, with white pepper, jasmine, glazed quince and peach pith, steely and dry, careening along a rail of saline mineral perk. Breadth, freshness, vinosity and phenolics, serving as a sheath of compression to the sheer intensity of the house style. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Soave Classico wafts up from the glass with an airy and inviting blend of wildflowers, fresh mint and crushed apples. This opens with soft textures and salty mineral tones that saturate while citrus-tinged orchard fruits cascade throughout. This tapers off with tension and freshness, at the same time puckering the cheeks and forcing the mouth to water for more as perfumed inner florals slowly fade. The Gini Soave Classico always represents amazing value."

"Flavors of golden apple and yellow pear feel round and ripe, tinged with a note of singed orange peel. Subtle acidity infuses the wine's rich texture, drawing out the flavors as hints of smoke and subtle spice emerge on the finish."
