Tedeschi 2014 Soave DOC, Italia

This wine is produced with grapes originating from the vineyards located in the hills of the Soave area, in the commune of Monteforte d’Alpone, near Verona.  The name of the city of Soave, and thus the wine, derives from “Svevi” or “Suavi”, after the population that attempted to conquer Italy in the year 568.  

This wine is 100% Garganega.  The wine is a lovely straw yellow and has a bouquet of ripe apple, lemon and hints of chamomile and almond.  A great pairing to a variety of classic Italian dishes, but the ripe fruit quality should pair particularly well with the vegetable, fish and cheese dishes.  Serve at 10-12 degrees.
