Pieropan, Soave Classico 2024/25

Get to know: Pieropan Soave Classico

Tasting Note

This benchmark Soave is delicate, floral and citrusy, with aromas of almond blossom, marzipan and white flowers. On the palate, it’s rounded and smooth, with juicy pear, peach and lemon zest layered over a clean, zippy freshness. The finish is long and subtly nutty – like fine almond pastry. It’s a brilliant all-rounder that shines with fish and veg dishes, but it’s just as happy on its own as a classy aperitif.

Food Pairings:

• A top choice with pan-fried white fish like sea bass or sea bream

• Delicious with asparagus risotto, pea and mint soup, or courgette fritters

• Lovely with egg-based dishes or as a refined aperitif with canapés

Kate Says

"This wine has been on our shelves since day one. Brilliantly made and family owned this is a precise and beautiful wine that is consistently brilliant. One to enjoy with a seafood pasta dish or a risotto."

Producer Info

The Pieropan family have been making wine in Soave since 1880, and they were the first ever to label a wine “Soave” back in the 1930s. Today, brothers Andrea and Dario Pieropan carry on the tradition with the same obsession for quality.

Their vineyards lie on the volcanic hillsides of the Soave Classico zone, where grapes ripen slowly, building flavour while holding on to their natural acidity. The wine is made from 85% Garganega and 15% Trebbiano di Soave, fermented in glass-lined cement tanks to preserve freshness.
