  2023 Costeggiola Soave DOC Classico, Guerrieri Rizzardi

  £1795 Original price was: £1795.£1595Current price is: £1595. 11% saving

  From one of the world’s most celebrated white wine regions, the 2023 Costeggiola Soave Classico is a striking expression of the volcanic hillside vineyards of the Costeggiola cru. Planted on the prime slope of the main hill, this vineyard benefits from ideal sun exposure and mineral-rich, stony soils—perfect conditions for growing exceptional Garganega and Chardonnay.

  Hand-harvested from mature vines at optimum ripeness, a portion of the fruit is picked slightly earlier to preserve vibrancy and freshness, balancing the natural concentration and richness of the vintage. Fermented and aged on the lees in stainless steel, without the use of oak, this wine is all about purity, texture, and terroir expression.

  In the glass, Costeggiola reveals aromas of white flowers, ripe stone fruits, citrus zest, and a subtle mineral edge. The palate is textured and dry, with lively acidity, a savoury core, and a long, clean finish. Complex yet approachable, this Soave Classico is both a refined aperitif and a versatile partner at the table.  A natural match for white meats like poultry or rabbit, meaty fish, goat’s milk cheese, and a wide range of antipasti.

  2024 Soave Classico ‘Cuvee XX’, Guerrieri Rizzardi

  £1595

  ​The 2024 Soave Classico Cuvée XX by Guerrieri Rizzardi is a refined white wine that pays tribute to the estate’s 20th-century legacy, as denoted by the “XX” in its name. This cuvée is crafted from select grapes grown in two esteemed cru vineyards—Costeggiola and Ferra—situated on the hills of Cavaion and Bardolino within the Soave Classico DOP area. These vineyards feature soils rich in limestone and volcanic subsoil, contributing to the wine’s distinctive character.

  In the glass, the wine exhibits a brilliant straw-yellow hue with greenish reflections. The nose reveals delicate floral aromas intertwined with notes of fresh yellow fruit, such as pear and green apple, accompanied by subtle hints of citrus and white flowers. On the palate, it is dry, precise, and expressive, showcasing a lively freshness and a well-defined mineral backbone that reflects its terroir. The wine’s light body is balanced by a good density of fruit, leading to a refreshing and persistent finish.

  The blend comprises 70% Garganega, 30% Chardonnay, and 5%. Fermentation occurs in thermo-conditioned concrete vats at controlled temperatures, followed by maturation on fine lees for three months in concrete and stainless steel tanks. This process enhances the wine’s texture and complexity without the influence of oak.

  2019 ‘Occhi di Ciumi’, Al-Cantara

  £2650

  A beautifully fresh wine with tropical notes and a core of minerality shining through the spicy flavour, long and saline on the finish.

  Made from a blend of Carricante and Grecanico. Carricante is an ancient white wine grape variety from eastern Sicily. It is thought to have been growing on the volcanic slopes of Mt Etna for at least a thousand years. Grecanico is one of the great varieties of white wine grape native to Italy, it is more commonly called Gargenega.

  Occhi di Ciumi grapes are grown in a valley between the volcano and the Nebrodi Mountains, at approximately 620 metres above sea level. At this elevation, warm days and cool nights encourage a long ripening period concentrating the flavours in the grapes while retaining balancing acidity. The vines are grown in ash coloured volcanic soils, which are rich in minerals and fossils. The soil is permeable to air and water and is rich in pumice stone and microelements, which allow the plants to produce a complex aromatic profile. The 10 to 50 year old vines are cultivated following organic and biodynamic principles and the vineyard is in conversion to organic status.
