A quick note from Laura: This wine is on so many NZ top restaurant wine lists that a shipment can sell out quite fast (restaurants need to hold plenty of stock to keep their wine list items available to their customers).
So please, please if you love this wine and you see it is available do not wait! Currently more stock is due in March. You can pre-order by emailing laura@thewinelist.co.nz
Notes from Pieropan: This is how soave should taste but seldom does. Plenty of ripe pear-like fruit plus a dash of toasted nut flavours. Crisp and fresh, with a hint of honey in the finish, this is a delightful aperitif wine, as well as a fine choice for pairing with light seafood or vegetarian dishes.
92/100 James Sucklng: "True Soave is a revelation not to be missed"

Wine match from Andrea Martinisi, Sommelier at The Grove and Baduzzi
Pieropan Soave 2021A classic wine from the Veneto region in Italy. The aromatic profile of the wine is dominated by orchard fruits such as apple and pears. The palate is nutty and has a real salinity and minerality which makes it a perfect match with this pasta dish.
When it comes to Mediterranean cuisine, simplicity is key.
A dish with very few ingredients. In my opinion it’s a great example of the saying “less is more”. It is all about the quality of the ingredients and the ability of combine them together. Same for the pairing with the wine. A deliciously refreshing wine, which enhances the sea flavours of the clams and bottarga.
