Grown on the top of a dormant volcano, this Soave shows why Garganga is one of the great white grapes of Italy. The wine opens with apple and citrus blossoms with hints of acacia honey followed by fleshy white peaches, Fuji apples and well-defined minerality. The palate is creamy yet taut with fine acidity and tons of minerality accented by ripe stone fruits and citrus zest.
94pts Tasting Panel
Fresh orchard fruit, salted almond, wet river stone, and white flowers. Saline-scented citrus, candied pear, and yellow apple appear on the rich, medium-bodied palate with tart makrut-lime acidity.
93pts James Suckling
Another brilliant expression, reflecting a culture of kaleidoscopic blending to attain a greater whole: tank and oak (no new) ferments, partly induced and spontaneous, all at once. Rapier-like precision, depth and weight, without any excess or obvious winemaking artefact perceivable. Mid-weighted, yet intense, reeling off notes of smoked almond, stone fruit allusions, pickled mango and kumquat. The finish is impressively pliant and majestically long.
93pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Showing beautiful aromatic intensity, the 2021 Soave Classico Foscarino pours from the bottle with soft orchard fruit, tropical tones and a distinctive mineral note of crushed oyster shell or volcanic ash. This wine has a pleasant creamy, mid-weight approach with more pretty fruit flavors on the close. This vintage of Foscarino hits the spot.
93pts Vinous
The 2021 Soave Classico Foscarino seduces with a rich blend of lemony custard, hazelnut, young peach and wet stone. Luxuriously round and silky in feel, this finds a beautiful balance through its core of mineral-drenched pit-fruits and brisk acidity. It finishes with incredible length and staining concentration, leaving a chalky sensation as the mouth waters for more. The 2021 Foscarino is beautiful today yet also built for the cellar. It was refined on lees for six months in a combination of barrique, large oak and steel, with bâtonnage every three weeks, followed by six months in stainless steel on fine lees.
90pts Wine Spectator
A supple white, plush in texture, with a subtle, salty underpinning to the flavors of baked melon, blanched almond, Meyer lemon peel and dried thyme. Lightly tangy on the finish. Drink now. 4,300 cases made, 800 cases imported.
Winemaker Notes
Aromatically the wine has notes of honeysuckle and other sweet wildflowers. On the palate, the mouthfeel is a little larger, with almond flavors as well as a finish of balancing minerality that shows exciting aging potential.
