The 2021 Pieropan Soave Classico is a remarkable white wine from the Veneto region of Italy. Produced by the esteemed Pieropan winery, this wine is a testament to their commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

In the glass, the wine presents a pale straw color with a slight greenish hue, hinting at its freshness and vibrancy. The nose is immediately captivated by an intense burst of sour citrus, crushed rocks, sea spray, and sour melon. These aromas create an invigorating and enticing bouquet that sets the stage for the tasting experience to come.

On the palate, the wine showcases medium-weight textures that wash across the tongue with prominence. The contrasting interplay of sweet and sour green citrus and zesty acidity adds complexity and depth to each sip. Notes of Granny Smith apples and exotic inner florals cascade throughout the finale, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and finesse.

Despite being an "entry-level" Soave Classico, this wine truly shines and exceeds expectations. It is a testament to the winery's dedication to producing exceptional wines at every price point. The 2021 Pieropan Soave Classico is a wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared for further development.

Renowned wine critics have also recognized the outstanding qualities of this wine. Eric Guido of Vinous awarded it an impressive score of 91 points, praising its length and surprising complexity. James Suckling, another respected critic, awarded it 92 points, highlighting its vibrant character and succulent ripe fruit. Wine & Spirits and Wine Spectator also gave it high scores of 91 and 90 points respectively, commending its taut acidity, fresh flavors, and lively, zesty edge.
