Cantina di Monteforte `Vigneto Montegrande` Soave Classico DO, Italy, is a superb dry White still wine crafted primarily from Garganega grapes. This complex expression sees 50% of its blend aged in French barriques for ten months, contributing significant depth. It offers a fresh, scented nose with hints of white fruit and the characteristic almond blossom, leading to a honeyed, waxy, and complex palate with a lovely citrus twist on the finish. Well-balanced and long, this wine is a testament to the quality of Soave Classico. It pairs beautifully with poultry, rich fish, or mature cheeses.

Vinification
Following crushing, the juice underwent immediate temperature reduction to 12°C via specialized pipeline systems, preserving varietal aromatics and enhancing the expression of grape characteristics. Primary fermentation proceeded under controlled conditions at 15°C for approximately seven days. The resulting wine was divided for maturation, with 50% aged in French barriques for ten months while the remainder developed in stainless steel tanks. Prior to final assembly, the blend was enhanced with 15% of newly vinified Soave Superiore from the current harvest, adding freshness and complexity to the cuvée. The completed blend underwent an additional three-month stabilization period in concrete vessels before bottling.
