SOAVE CLASSICO 'STAFORTE' PRÀ 2023 DESCRIPTION

The Soave Classico Straforte by Prà is a great white wine ambassador of a unique territory, where the vineyards of Graziano Prà grow on the steep slopes of the hills of Monteforte. This passionate and tireless winemaker is in love with the terroir of the undulating morphology and black soil, capable of giving finesse and minerality to his wines, with notes so well chiseled that they last for years.

For this reason, in the winery he prefers to adopt a style of grape processing aimed at preserving their organoleptic characteristics; all the research and winemaking innovation is focused on enhancing the quality of his products. From these choices comes the decision to start a project of organic farming for the wines of Valpolicella, which he has been dedicated to for a few years. From a vineyard about thirty to forty years old, beautifully exposed to the south, Graziano Prà obtains the grapes of garganega that make up his Soave Classico Straforte.

Wonderfully enriched by the volcanic soil, the fruits retain a delightful mineral vein on the nose married sweetly with sweet notes of ripe apricots, succulent yellow apples, and delicate citrus. A tasting with explosive freshness, which will give you a taste of one of the most noble Italian terroirs, bringing Prà to the qualitative peaks of white wine production in Italy.

When to drink
Wine good to drink now, but that can have a beautiful evolution after resting for a while in your cellar
Glass
Medium open goblet
Perfect for young and medium bodied white wines which don't require excessive oxygenation to open. The opening, slightly tighter than the body of the glass, favors the concentration of aromas towards the nose, enhancing the perception of aromas and limiting the dispersion
