Made from a meticulous blend of Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave grapes, it stands out for its straw yellow colour with bright gold-green highlights. Its \u003cstrong\u003earomatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e is fresh and elegant, revealing floral notes of elderflower and fruity hints of limoncella apple and pear, enriched by subtle touches of hazelnut. On the palate, the sip is harmonious and balanced, characterised by an intense \u003cstrong\u003emineral savouriness\u003c\/strong\u003e that leads to a persistent and satisfying finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Soave Classico originates from the historic hilly area, from west-facing vineyards situated between two hundred and three hundred metres above sea level. The vines, trained using the \u003cstrong\u003ePergola Veronese\u003c\/strong\u003e system, grow on \u003cstrong\u003evolcanic soil\u003c\/strong\u003e rich in basalt, clay and tuff, which imparts a distinctive mineral signature to the wine. The name Calvarino evokes the steep nature of the slopes and the dedication required for manual work among the rows, a commitment that translates into an authentic \u003cstrong\u003eterritorial identity\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e takes place at different times to respect the ripening periods of the grapes: Trebbiano di Soave in mid-September and Garganega in October. In the winery, destemming and gentle pressing precede fermentation in \u003cstrong\u003eglass-lined cement tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e. The blend matures for a year on its lees in these containers, gaining depth without losing freshness, before completing its journey with a necessary period of rest. It pairs perfectly with lean fish, savoury vegetable tarts and the traditional \u003cstrong\u003easparagus risotto\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Calvarino vineyard represents the historical soul of the Pieropan family.
