The 2007 Soave Staforte sees six months of batonnage which gives the wine a richer and more intense expression of varietal Garganega aromas and fruit. Although this bottling possesses gorgeous textural beauty, I find the normal bottling slightly more convincing here. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2010. Pra is an excellent source for Soave, one of Northern Italy’s most compelling white wines. These two wines are made from 100% Garganega farmed on hillside vineyards in the heart of the Soave zone.

Attractive translucent yellow in color, with pineapple and cream, a hint of anise and a chalky mineral character that characterizes the texture of the palate. Medium-bodied and well-structured. An interesting white. Drink now. 1,665 cases made.
