Description
The Pieropan family has produced wines in Soave since the 1890s and today, their estate comprises 58 hectares of vineyards planted on the stony hills of Soave Classico. In the early 1930s, they were the first producer to bottle a wine with the name Soave on the label. Nino Pieropan took over from his father in 1970 and became the first producer to make a single-vineyard Soave, ‘Calvarino’ in 1971. When Nino sadly passed away in 2018, his two sons, Andrea and Dario, began running the estate, continuing their family’s traditions and passion for making outstanding wine. From the 2015 vintage onwards, all Pieropan’s wines are certified organic.
‘La Rocca’ is golden yellow in the glass, with intense, concentrated perfumes that follow through to the palate. On the nose, classic ‘La Rocca’ aromas of nuts and exotic fruits lead to an elegant and beautifully balanced palate, with notes of spice and a light minerality on the long finish.
