The Santa Sofia Soave Classico DOC is elegant and herbaceous with lots of fruit but not as much minerality as a typical soave. A fine, well-balanced and pleasant bouquet with white peach, jasmine blossom and lemon zest. Long and clean on the finish.
Santa Sofia is located just north of Verona on the gentle slopes of the verdant Valpolicella Classico region and housed in the beautiful Villa Santa Sofia that was built back in 1560. The Begnoni family, who bought the villa along with its ancient cellars and vineyards in 1964, have worked to maintain the estate’s tradition of making approachable and elegant wines that represent the ancient Valpolicella terroir—one very pleasant example of which is this Santa Sofia Soave Classico.
