Product Description
Corte Giacobbe Soave Superiore “Runcata” DOCG
100% Garganega. Golden yellow color with an intense nose of peach, chamomile, vanilla, sage and minerality. The palate is warm with excellent body. Intense and very persistent, this is a very structured wine.
“Within our town limits, there are two extinct volcanoes that generated the entire Soave area, so volcanic rock is really concentrated here. But no place has more than Roncà.“
