“The enveloping, delicious palate delivers white peach, mature pear, ginger and lemon drop flavors. Fresh acidity brightens the creamy flavors while a mineral note energizes the finish.” 

Gini has cultivated vineyards in Monteforte since 1600. This makes them one of the oldest wine producers in the Soave Classico zone. Research has unearthed a deed of sale from the Kingdom of Lombardy - Venetia, dated 1852 which verifies the purchase of a vineyard by Giuseppe Gini, in Contrada Salvarenza where the Gini family was already proprietor of neighboring vineyards.

Our team says that most people don’t realize that Soave isn’t always delicate and very subtle. This version is every bit as powerful as any Italian white.
