2016 Gini Col Foscarin Recioto di Soave Classico DOCG

Impart freshness. Despite the generosity of quince paste, torrefied almond and the bitter orange marmalade pithy finish, this is akin to an electric toothbrush whirring through the mouth and sweeping the sugar away to the point of palpable dryness.

About Gini

Our family has cultivated vineyards in Monteforte since 1600. This makes us one of the oldest wine producers in the Soave Classico zone. Our 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 neighbouring vineyards.

The expertise has been passed down through the centuries, from generation to generation, to our father Olinto, master winemaker, who handed down his skills and passion for this profession directly to us. Thus our labour has become, over time, our tradition.
