Rich stone fruit, roasted nuts and gentle spice make Pieropan Soave Classico La Rocca 2022 a strikingly layered white, with ripe peach, baked pear and dried tropical notes gliding over a deep, stony core. The barrel aging shows as subtle creaminess and toasted nuance rather than heaviness, while a beam of salty, vibrant acidity pulls everything into a long, focused finish. A powerful yet finely tuned expression of this warm, highly successful vintage.

Soave Classico La Rocca by Pieropan is a single-vineyard, 100% Garganega from the limestone- and clay-rich slopes of Monte Rocchetta beneath Soave’s medieval castle, a rare calcareous site in a largely volcanic appellation. Late-harvested, often with a touch of botrytis and aged on lees in French tonneaux and large Slavonian casks, it is an opulent, ageworthy Soave known for its exotic fruit, honeyed and nutty complexity, and warm, velvety texture balanced by vivid acidity.
