Prà - Soave Classico Monte Grande 2021 (750ml)
Prà Description
The Prà winery, although only started in the early 1980’s, has come to be not only one of the top producers in the Soave appellation, but also one of the most important and visionary white wine makers in all of Italy (now expanding into red wine as well)! The winery is run by Graziano Prà, whose family owned their vineyards for generations but never commercialized the wines in bottles. The vineyards are situated in the heart of the appellation, in Monteforte D’Alpone. Besides Soave, the winery also produces Valpolicella and Amarone from a vineyard that he purchased and planted in 2001, and whose truly remarkable results are only now being discovered.
The Prà holdings consist of 30 HA in Soave and 8 HA in Valpolicella. Graziano was always a big believer in natural viticulture and its positive effect on the wines and has farmed organically since the outset. All grapes are harvested by hand both in Soave and Valpolicella.
Montegrande is a great single vineyard Cru from Pra'. The Garganega grapes harvested at over–ripeness and the Trebbiano di Soave grapes bearing an important acidic profile guarantee the wine’s great aging potential.
Tasting Note: An outstanding olfactory complexity of mature exotic fruit and yellow citrus fruits. On the palate it has good freshness with a long finish of sweet almond and vanilla. Thanks to its structure this wine has a good aging potential. Due to its structural complexity, it can withstand lengthy aging in the bottle.
Wine Pairing: Perfect with shellfish and fish dishes as red tuna or seabass. Ideal served with quiche, seafood risotto and with meat roast.
