Description
Recioto di Soave is a sweet white wine made from dried grapes grown in the Soave viticultural zone of Veneto, northeastern Italy. The DOCG title, which includes the Classico version, was granted in 1998.
Recioto di Soave is made from grapes that have been dried out for several weeks or even months after harvest. Traditionally this process took place on straw mats (it is considered a straw wine) in the warmest part of the house or winery.
This should be intense amber in colour. In terms of taste you should expect sweet spices, roasted barley, nicely ripe white fruit with the sweetness of lime and honeysuckle. The palate should be round, toned, full of flavour with long finish filled with roasted and smoky notes and hints of almond.
