Tasting- Bolla Soave

Name: Bolla Soave
Variety: Garganega, Trebbiano
Region: Soave
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $10.95

Vintage Cellar Review: "Soave" means "soft" in Italian, and the soft floral bouguet and clean pear and lemon flavors help this wine live up to its name. A delicate almond aftertaste makes it the perfect quaff to lighter fare like grilled seafood, chicken, fish-based pastas, and entree salads. It also makes a perfect aperitif.

My Review: This wine was very fruity but with a dry aftertaste. When drinking this wine with food, such as bread, the aftertaste is more subtle and not as harsh. Bolla Soave has delicate tannins with just the right amount of acidity.

I had this wine with bread.
