A special glass of wine, as we don't often see a Monte Grande in the Soave region. It's a blend of Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave. The latter grape variety provides the wonderful aroma and adds texture to the white wine. This blend, combined with the vineyard's fantastic location, ultimately results in a wine with great complexity and elegance.

10 months of wood aging for Pra Monte Grande Soave Classico

Pra Winery was founded in the early 1980s and has become one of the top producers in the Soave appellation. They are known for their distinctively Italian white wines. They own 30 hectares in Soave and 7 hectares in Valpolicella. Owner Graziano Pra emphasizes natural viticulture, and some of the vineyards are already organically certified. Only native grape varieties are used, with the white wines primarily made from Garganega or Trebbiano. The red wines are made from the renowned Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella. The grapes for this Grande Soave Classico are grown in Monte Grande, a low-yielding, south-facing vineyard on the 14-hectare estate. The vineyard is situated at an altitude of 150 meters above sea level and has volcanic soil. The vines average 40 years old, and the stems of the Garganega bunches are cut shortly before harvest to allow the grapes to dry on the vine. This allows for more concentrated flavors. The grapes are then harvested by hand in mid-October. The grapes are rigorously selected in the winery, gently pressed, and then fermented at a controlled temperature of 18 degrees Celsius. The must is fermented in Allier oak barrels, where the wine is then aged for 10 months.

The smell and taste of Pra Monte Grande Soave Classico

The result is an incredibly elegant wine. It has a delicate, subtly aromatic nose with seductive aromas of peach, lemon, mango, honey, and savory notes. The palate is fresh and pure with deep concentration. We note stone fruit, pineapple, and citrus. It has good acidity and a balanced finish. We enjoy serving this white wine with fish dishes.
