Suavia Soave Classico 2023

Suavia's 30 hectares of vineyards are located in the heart of the Soave Classico region, within the volcanic hills that rise up to 340 meters. This high-altitude location benefits from a cooler microclimate and a wide diurnal temperature range, which, alongside excellent sunlight exposure, helps to create optimal conditions for grape growing. The volcanic soils, originating from ancient Eocene-era volcanic activity, provide a unique mineral composition rich in iron, magnesium, and manganese. These soils, combined with centuries of careful viticulture, create a balanced environment where the vines thrive and interact with the land in a dynamic, ongoing relationship.

The vineyards exclusively grow the two native white grape varieties of the region: Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave. Garganega, a variety with deep roots in the area dating back to the 11th century, flourishes in the hilly terrains of Soave, producing wines with delicate refinement and firm minerality. Trebbiano di Soave, once in danger of being lost, has been revived through Suavia's collaboration with the University of Milan and now thrives in the vineyard once again. This ancient grape variety, known for its high acidity and sapidity, is a key element in Suavia’s dedication to preserving the region’s winemaking heritage. Together, these native varieties tell the story of the land’s rich history and unique terroir, creating wines that are both a testament to tradition and a reflection of Suavia’s innovative spirit.
