2017 Monte Tondo Soave Classico

The Monte Tondo vineyard can be found nestling in the gentle hills of Soave just a few kilometres from Verona on a slope overlooking the valley. Today it is 4th generation brother and sister team, Luca and Marta Magnabosco, who tend to the 25 hectares of vineyards situated on the best plots that the Soave zone can offer.

Brilliant pale straw colour with highlights of green around the outskirts and a watery hue. Elevated aromas of fresh pear and ripe lime meld into hints of dried honey, wet stone and mineral notes. Delicious flavours of lime and fresh pear decorate the mouth with an undercard of green apple, stony mineral characters and light fresh herb infusions. Nicely textured yet light on its feet it finishes with crisp acidity and long aftertaste. Delicious summer drinking.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 12.5%

Other Reviews….
Aromas of lemons, cooked apples and lemon curd with some straw. Full-bodied, rich and layered with a beautiful, creamy texture and rich fruit, yet always fresh and beautiful. Serious Soave. Drink now.
