點擊次數：3952

The 2006 Recioto di Soave Classico Col Foscarin is a sweet wine made from Garganega that has been left to dry for five to six months before vinification. The wine reveals candied apricots, honey, burnt sugar and spices in a soft, richly-textured style. The wine offers excellent balance, even if at times it comes across as slightly heavy-handed. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011. Gini is a terrific source for rich fruit-driven wines from the Soave district.

The Reciotos from Soave are an excellent choice for readers who want a sweet wine that is not overly heavy or intense. Gini’s 2004 Recioto di Soave Col Foscarin is made from fruit that was air-dried for six months prior to being vinified, and was aged in French oak. It is a pretty, floral Recioto with notes of dried apricots, dried figs and spices. Medium in body, it is a delicious, accessible dessert wine to enjoy now and over the next few years. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2010. Gini produces excellent Soaves in a generous, fruity, easy-going style. Most of the Soaves are made with 100% Garganega and the estate’s top selections are made from old-vine fruit.
