Soave Classico "Monte Majore", Le Albare - 2023

Item # 31169 750 mL

Basalt and volcanic soils are ideal for white wines and the white Garganega thrives on it in the vineyards which are located in the Alpone Valley. The Monte Majore vineyard is one of Soave's best-known sites stretching all around the top of the extinct volcano of the same name. The Posenato family has 1.5 hectares of Garganega vines and they were planted by pergola in 1948. The Le Albare estate is in its 4th generation of production under the direction of Stefano Posenato. Although fine Soaves such as this are meant to be enjoyed in their youth, this has the pedigree to age for a good decade.

Staff Pick Notes

Sometimes in life it's the little things - the details, that provide welcome moments of unexpected joy and happiness. I recently opened a bottle of Le Albare Monte Majore Soave Classico and was pleasantly prompted to crack a smile. Removing the capsule revealed a cork with a smiley face printed on the top of it. In all of my years of pulling corks, I've never seen this - it made me smile. After removing the cork, you see it branded with the name Posenato Family - along with a message saying "Enjoy Your Life". In this moment, I felt grateful for this message from a family that clearly approaches their winemaking and marketing of it, with love. This is a beautiful example of classic Soave that promises a moment of joy.
