CARBONARE SOAVE CLASSICO D.O.C. Nestled in a remote corner, Carbonare is a wonderful vineyard of old pergolas which greets the morning sun, overlooking a steep sided valley. In the past, farmers used to harvest wood and peat from here to produce coal (in italian carbone). This plot, located halfway up the hillside with its exposure to the East, is characterised by fresh air coming down from the Val d’Alpone and its little Dolomites. The natural balance of the plants and the adjacent streams showed us that water flows underneath, a precious resource in order to produce a great white wine. The basalt, which characterizes the Soave Classico grounds, has great chromatic complexity here, fading from black to green, red and orange. The strong character of the vineyard is evident in the grapes: joyful aromas of citrus, effervescent acidity, mineral freshness. PRODUCED BY:
