Prà Soave Classico 2011

This is not the cheap soave that we furtively drank as teenagers. It's a beautiful, pale yellow colour, and comes out of the bottle with a very light spritz that quickly dissipates. On the nose, it has lemon, pear, and a touch of green apple and banana, with a crisp, citrusy presentation on the palate. Good length. This wine pairs perfectly with lighter-coloured fish, especially if there's a bit of citrus in the preparation. Tasted October 2012.
