The Tessari family have been growing grapes in the heart of the Soave Classico area since 1887, however it was not until the early 1980's that they dedicated themselves to producing premium wines from the region's indigenous heroes Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave. Giovanni and Rosetta Tessari built a modern and efficient winery in 1990 underneath the building that has been the Tessari family home, and the facility was designed specifically for the production of white wine with the most advanced technology available. Now run by Giovanni and Rosetta's daughters, Meri, Valentina, and Alessandra, Suavia's focus is on using their state-of-the art facility to express the nuances of their native terroir with both Garganega and Trebbiano.

Monte Carbonare is the name of the hill upon which the vineyard that sources this wine is situated. Produced from 100% Garganega and exposed only to stainless steel in order to preserve freshness, this is a pure expression of the volcanic terroir.

Other Reviews....
Honeyed, white-almond and mineral accents to the lemony citrus and cantaloupe. Pure and tangy on the palate, with a hint of honeydew melon that lingers through the bright, long finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now. Screw cap.
