Pieropan Soave Classico La Rocca 2024

Pieropan Soave Classico La Rocca 2024 is one of Soave’s most distinctive white wines, crafted from Garganega grown on the celebrated La Rocca vineyard in the hills above the historic village of Soave. Its unique microclimate and late-harvest style help create a wine with remarkable aromatic depth, richness, and a character that has made it a benchmark for the appellation since the first label in 1978.

Tasting Notes
La Rocca typically shows a luminous straw-yellow colour with a subtle golden sheen, reflecting the ripeness of the fruit. The nose is expressive and layered, with ripe orchard fruit, citrus zest, delicate floral notes, and a distinctive mineral edge shaped by the vineyard’s hillside exposure. On the palate, the wine is broad, textured, and beautifully concentrated, with ripe Garganega bringing depth, freshness, and complexity in equal measure. Expect a generous yet refined style with a long, savoury finish and the structure to age gracefully over several years, developing even more nuance with time.

Production
La Rocca vineyard sits on the slopes of Monte Rocchetta, close to the medieval Scaligeri castle in the Soave area of Veneto. Its special microclimate and hillside terroir encourage slow ripening, and the grapes are often harvested very late, sometimes toward the end of October, to achieve exceptional aromatic intensity and concentration. Vinification is focused on preserving the purity and richness of Garganega while capturing the full character of this singular site.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, rich fish dishes, shellfish, risotto, and creamy pasta, as well as aged hard cheeses. Serve it slightly chilled, around 10–12°C, and decanting is not usually necessary, though a short rest in the glass can help reveal its full aromatic profile.
