Fasoli Gino Recioto di Soave ‘San Zeno’ (50cl)
£33.00
Taste
Opulent, Sweet yellow orchard fruits with spice and honey
Aroma
Honey roasted almonds and orange marmalade, Peach and apricot
Description
Absolute nectar! The best bunches of grapes – in this case those with the highest sugar level and with a low number of grapes – are selected from the various Garganega vineyards. Another selection is made in the winery and the bunches are hung on vertical nets where they are left to dry for five or six months. Following fermentation, the wine is matured in oak barriques for 15-18 months. The final wine tastes of apricots and would go very well with a citrus-based tart or it could also be served with mature cheeses, while its complexity means that it only can improve with time.

Must buy
I simply cannot recommend this wine highly enough. Sensational quality, and even though the price is quite high, it’s a bargain compared to top Sauternes etc, to which I think this compares favourably in quality.

Justifiably expensive
This is much more than I’d normally pay for a bottle, but boy was it worth it. Sensational taste.
