2022 Cantina Filippi 'Castelcerino' Colli Scaligeri Soave Veneto, Italy

2022 Cantina Filippi 'Castelcerino' Colli Scaligeri Soave Veneto, Italy

$36.00

Unlike like many other examples of Soave, Castelcerino is based on only the native Garganega varietal from two southeast exposed parcels at 320 meters of volcanic soils.  Fermented and elevated in 100HL stainless steel vats, this wine remains on its lees for a varying number of months depending on the vintage. During this period the wine decants naturally and undergoes no filtration before bottling. Flavorful and inviting, this Veneto white shows notes of almonds, anise, and white grapefruit with a smooth texture and lingering finish. Filippo recommends this wine mainly with fish and shellfish dishes although it has enough character and spice to stand up to various ethnic cuisines.
