Inama Carbonare Soave Clssico 2020

Nestled in a remote corner, Carbonare is a wonderful vineyard of old pergolas which greets the morning sun, overlooking a steep sided valley. In the past, farmers used to harvest wood and peat from here to produce coal (in italian carbone). The old owner had us taste the Recioto (the local sweet wine) from this vineyard. The purity of this traditional wine was so inspirational that we decided to acquire it! This plot, located halfway up the hillside with its exposure to the East, has a noticeably different microclimate compared to Foscarino. The fresh air comes down from the Val d’Alpone and its Piccole Dolomiti. The natural balance of the plants and the adjacent streams told us that water flows underneath, a precious resource in order to produce a great white wine. The basalt, which characterizes the Soave Classico grounds, has great chromatic complexity here, fading from black to green, red and orange. The strong character of the vineyard is evident in the grapes: joyful aromas of citrus, effervescent acidity, mineral freshness. This is how the “Carbonare” label is born. The wine is richly flavoured, with an important acidic backbone to provide balance and support its aromatic character. Citrus flavours are complemented by savoury notes to add complexity, with a fresh finish.
