Description
Still organic white wine, produced by Suavia in Veneto, 12.5% ABV, 100% Garganega, 2020 vintage. A Soave Classico born from the passion of the Tessari family, who have cultivated the land since 1800. Aged for 12 months on the lees in steel tanks and 24 months in bottle. It opens with mineral sensations accompanied by a distinctive note of white pepper and a fragrance of jasmine. Bright straw yellow. Tense and energetic, the finish is long and savory, a wine that perfectly expresses the volcanic terroir from which it originates.

Our family has been living and cultivating the land since the nineteenth century in Fittà: a small rural village mounted like a precious stone on the hills of Soave Classico. The history of Suavia however began later, in 1982, when Giovanni and Rosetta (the father and mother), aware of the great potential of their area, decided to set up on their own and make their mark, crushing their grapes and making their own wine.
Today we three sisters, Meri, Valentina and Alessandra, carry on the family tradition and run the winery always working here in Fittà, where it all started. Read more
