The Monte Tondo vineyard can be found nestling in the gentle hills of Soave just a few kilometres from Verona on a slope overlooking the valley. Today it is 4th generation brother and sister team, Luca and Marta Magnabosco, who tend to the 25 hectares of vineyards situated on the best plots that the Soave zone can offer.

Brilliant pale straw colour with a slight tinge of green around the edges and a watery hue. Lifted aromas of pear and spicy ripe Jonathan apples are followed by hints of honeysuckle, wet stone and quince. Texturally rounded mouthfeel with ripe pear and apple flavours to the fore over subtle honeysuckle infusions, light notions of nut and spicy quince. Finishes with good freshness and a long spicy aftertaste of ripe pears, apples, honeysuckle, a subtle nuttiness and quince.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
