2002 Suavia Soave Classico, Veneto $14


Another beautiful Soave from the Veneto. Wine see's no oak at all which tends to show in that light straw looking color with a soft green-like hint around the rim. On the nose you can pick up some soft honeydew and herbs like mint. On the palate she was pretty full-bodied with some really good acidity. I might even take this down with some nice spicy phad thai! On the finish there was more melon and citrus with a hint of minerals. There is a lot more going in this wine than most would think. I like it.
