Description

Imagine yourself basking in the Italian sunshine, a gentle breeze carrying the scent of wildflowers and ripe fruit. That's the essence of Villa Canestrari's Vigne di Sande Soave. This isn't just another white wine; it's a love letter to the Soave Classico region, crafted with meticulous care by a family that's been dedicated to winemaking since 1888.

Villa Canestrari, nestled in the heart of Veneto, is more than just a winery; it's a legacy. The vineyards, carefully tended for generations, yield grapes that are a true reflection of the terroir. The Vigne di Sande Soave is made with 100% Garganega grapes, grown in the hills of the Soave Classico area. The name 'Vigne di Sande' refers to the sandy soils of the hillside vineyards, contributing a distinctive minerality to the wine.

From the moment you pour a glass, you'll be enchanted. The pale straw-yellow color hints at the freshness to come. On the nose, delicate aromas of white flowers dance with notes of crisp apple, pear, and a subtle hint of almond. Take a sip, and you'll be greeted with a dry, refreshing palate, a vibrant acidity balanced by a gentle creaminess. The mineral undertones add complexity and depth, leading to a clean, persistent finish.

This Soave is incredibly versatile. Its crisp acidity makes it an ideal aperitif, perfect for awakening the palate before a meal. It's also a fantastic companion to a wide range of dishes. Think fresh seafood, such as grilled shrimp or seared scallops. The wine's delicate flavors complement the briny notes of the seafood without overpowering them. It's also delicious with light pasta dishes, salads, and creamy risottos.

But the versatility doesn't stop there. This Soave is also a perfect match for vegetarian dishes. Its crispness cuts through the richness of creamy sauces, while its fruity notes enhance the flavors of fresh vegetables. Try it with a goat cheese salad, asparagus risotto, or even a simple grilled vegetable platter.

With an alcohol percentage of 12.5%, it’s light enough to be enjoyed throughout the day, while still offering plenty of flavor and complexity. Serve it chilled, around 8°C, to fully appreciate its refreshing character. No need to decant; simply uncork and enjoy.

Choosing Villa Canestrari's Vigne di Sande Soave is not only about getting a delicious wine, but it is also about taking part in a tradition. This wine is a testament to the family's expertise, the unique character of the Soave Classico region, and the beauty of Italian winemaking. So, go ahead, open a bottle, and let the flavors of Italy transport you to a place of sunshine, vineyards, and pure enjoyment.
