La Rocca is a 100% Garganega Soave Classico from one of Pieropan's greatest single vineyards, aged in oak on the family's organic estate.

Deep golden, it opens with baked apple, candied orange peel and acacia honey, with vanilla, toast and smoky flint.

Full and opulent, with dried apricot, roasted hazelnut and butterscotch balanced by vibrant acidity and volcanic minerality, it has a long, almost saline finish.

A white for lobster, roast guinea fowl or porcini risotto.

Tasting notes
▾

Deep golden colour with rich amber highlights. Profound nose of baked apple, candied orange peel, and acacia honey with complex notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and smoky flint. The palate is full-bodied and opulent, with layers of dried apricot, roasted hazelnut, and butterscotch, balanced by a vibrant acidity and deep volcanic minerality. Extraordinarily long, complex finish with notes of caramel, spice, and an almost saline persistence that lingers for minutes.
