Grape

Garganega

Origin
The Inama estate was founded in 1960. Their Classico wine is made from Garganega grown on 17 hectares of basaltic lava. The vines are up to 30 years old and are hand-harvested. Stainless steel fermentation is followed by up to eight months maturation before bottling.
Taste
From lower yields and the best slopes in the region this wine is generous, revealing apricots, honey, flowers and almonds. Generous acidity and a rich texture enforce the elegant finish this wine has.
Enjoy
Drinking now but will be fine with another couple of years' ageing. The creamy finish lends itself perfectly to a match with fish pie.

    Great Wine

    One of the best wines I have ever tasted. I am no wine expert but this wine is one that I always try and buy on any visit to Majestic. I have found that the 2012 wines are a little fruitier that the 2011.

    One of the better Soave Classico

    We love Soave Classico but it varies enormously in quality. Although the most well-known name is Pieropan we far prefer the wines of Pra. But these are not easy to get and we have unsuccessfully tried many alternatives; but we have now found that the Inama stocked by Majextic hits the spot.

    good value easy drinking

    Great aperitif and with fish or pasta dishes. Crisp and smooth - much better value than its big brother

Staff Reviews

  • "With autumn just around the corner, you may be thinking of stocking up on your reds as the cool nights begin to draw in. I think no! Especially when you have the rich and characterful Inama Soave in your glass. Everything about this wine screams autumnul rusticity, from the smell of baked apples and hints of spice to the mellow fruit acidity and smooth almond finish. This wine is a fantastic example of how a massively underrated grape, a volcanic terroir and relaxed wine making can produce a wine full of expression. Garganega is truly in season."

Press Reviews

  • "Surprise yourself with the 2009 Inama Soave Classico, a delightfully fragrant dry Venetian white with purity of definition and stonefruit flavours."
