The 2024 Cantine Prà Soave Classico Otto DOC is a benchmark expression of Garganega from the volcanic hills of Soave Classico in Veneto, Italy. Crafted from organically farmed vineyards and vinified in stainless steel, it reflects a pure, unoaked style focused on freshness, minerality and precision. Known as one of the region’s reference producers, Prà delivers a wine that captures both terroir and approachability in equal measure.
The nose is bright and aromatic, offering notes of white peach, pear and green apple, layered with lemon zest, jasmine and hawthorn florals. Subtle hints of almond and fresh herbs add complexity, while a delicate mineral edge reflects the volcanic soils of the region.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with a crisp, vibrant structure. Flavours of citrus, orchard fruit and a touch of almond bitterness are supported by lively acidity and a distinctive saline minerality. The texture is clean and precise, leading to a refreshing, citrus-driven finish with excellent balance and finesse.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is one of the best-value expressions of classic Soave - fresh, mineral and effortlessly drinkable. It’s perfect for customers who enjoy Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc but want something more textured and terroir-driven. Best enjoyed young over the next 2–4 years. Ideal as an aperitif or paired with seafood, fresh cheeses, vegetable dishes or light Italian cuisine.
