Inama - Soave Classico DOC - Carbonare - White - 2023

Wine:

2022 White Soave DOC Carbonare comes from volcanic soils and opens with a quiet restraint. The nose is marked by bright lemon aromas, joined by white fruit and a faintly smoky touch that gives real character. There is clear minerality, bringing crystalline freshness. On the palate, the wine broadens with supple flesh and generous texture, adding depth and shape. Well-balanced acidity drives the length beautifully, while the finish stays taut with a light saline edge. A true food wine, delicious today yet capable of gaining complexity over the next seven years. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee.
