Vinification Details

The grapes were hand harvested and chilled on the way to the press. The juice was naturally settled and fermented at low temperatures to help preserve the fresh fruit character of the grapes. The wine was the held in temperature controlled stainless steel before bottling.

History

The Cantina di Monteforte co-op is situated in the eastern part of Soave Classico and Soave. They have 1,200 hectares in total, part in Soave Classico and part outside the Classico zone, with some of the best vineyards in Soave Classico. 60% of their vineyards are on the hills, facing south and southeast, which gives wines that are riper and fuller than most others produced in Soave. The co-op has 600 members and harvests about 20,000 tonnes of grapes a year. Cool summer breezes blowing down the Alpone Valley from the foothills of the Dolomites to the north give warm days and cool nights, which helps with the accumulation of aromatic characters in the grapes. Matt Thomson works with Gaetano Tobin at the Cantina to produce these wines.

Regional Information

Bud burst was delayed by seven to eight days compared to the 2018 vintage, but rainfall and high temperatures in the following weeks brought forward flowering. On the whole, the grapes developed well and in perfect condition. Yields were slightly higher than in 2018

Worst Pinot I've tasted!

1 stars

Very, very disappointed with this Italian Pinot. It's not elegant at all. Extremely sharp. I love Italian wine on the whole, but this is not one I would recommend at all.
