Description
What kind of wine it is
Soave Oasi San Giacomo by Allegrini is a still white wine from Veneto, under the Soave denomination, created from a harmonious blend of Garganega and Chardonnay. On the nose, it offers an elegant interweaving of wildflowers and jasmine, enriched by lively notes of pink grapefruit, citron, and a delicate hint of white peach. On the palate, it is smooth and dry, supported by a refreshing acidity and a persistent minerality with a volcanic imprint. Vinified and matured in steel, the sip finishes with a long and fragrant aftertaste.
Where it comes from
This white belongs to the Soave denomination and reflects the authentic character of the Veronese territory. The grapes come from the hills of Fumane and Mezzane di Sotto, in south-west facing areas situated between one hundred and fifty and two hundred and fifty metres above sea level. The soils, rich in limestone and of predominantly volcanic origin, impart the typical savouriness of the area to the wine. The Allegrini winery manages these slopes with care to ensure the perfect health of the bunches.
How it is produced
The manual harvest takes place between September and early October. The whole bunches undergo gentle pressing to preserve their quality intact. This is followed by cryo-maceration at low temperatures, an ideal step to delicately extract the aromatic components from the skins. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, thus maintaining the clarity of the fruity aromas. The wine then matures on the fine lees for about four months, completing its cycle with a final maturation that defines its elegance.

The Allegrini winery, a Venetian excellence since 1854, produces the esteemed Soave Oasi San Giacomo, a white wine that celebrates the winemaking tradition of the Veronese hills. Furthermore, this wine has been awarded 91 points by the critic James Suckling.
