Alpha Zeta 'G' Garganega from Soave, Italy, is a delightful still white wine. Crafted from Garganega grapes, it undergoes fermentation and aging in stainless steel tanks on fine lees at low temperatures, preserving its fresh character. It presents a golden colour with aromatic notes of acacia blossom and dried herbs. The palate is lively, showcasing rich minerality and a clean, zesty finish. This dry wine offers a refreshing experience, making it an excellent accompaniment to lean fish, shellfish, or light vegetarian dishes.

Vinification
The grapes were hand harvested, destemmed, crushed, and chilled on the way to the press with no addition of sulphur before undergoing a short maceration to enhance the structure of the wine. Before racking, cultured yeasts were added to start fermentation, which took place at 12-16°C in 1200-hectolitre stainless steel tanks. These relatively low fermentation temperatures helped preserve the fresh fruit character of the grapes. The wine was then aged in the same stainless steel tanks on fine lees until bottling.
Flavour profile
This delightful white wine presents a golden hue with a fresh, aromatic nose. It offers perfumes of acacia blossom and a touch of dried herbs, leading to a lively palate. Expect a rich minerality and a clean, zesty finish that invigorates the senses.
Serving recommendation
Serve chilled at 12-14°C to best appreciate its fresh, zesty character. No decanting required.
