Soave Classico, La Frosca, 2019
justerini & brooks tasting note
La Frosca 2019 turns up the intensity, with the same stone fruit character but also notes of blood orange, lime zest and oriental spice. A honeyed character envelops the palate, but it is piqued by peach and apple skin, pear, and an oyster shell mineral finish.

93/100Eric Guido,Vinous
The 2019 Soave Classico La Froscà wafts up with honeyed florals, ground ginger and hints of smoke. This soothes with its silky textures, while nervous acidity enlivens the experience and adds a cascading sensation to its mineral-tinged orchard fruits. There’s so much concentration here. It leaves the palate caked in chalky minerals while finishing lightly structured. This zesty rendition of La Froscà will take some time to fully blossom, but it’s packed full of potential.
