This white wine, hailing from the prestigious Soave region in Veneto, is a true testament to the unique terroir and the winemaking tradition of the area. The wine is made from 100% Garganega grapes, known for their ability to express the minerality of the volcanic soils of Soave.

With an alcohol content of 12%, it is well balanced and wonderfully easy to drink.
The Vigneti del Sole Soave is best served chilled, ideally around 8°C to fully appreciate its nuanced flavours. This is a wine that shines in its versatility.
