Tasting-La Cappuccina Soave


Name: La Cappuccina Soave
Variety: 100% Garganega
Region: Veneto
Country: Italy
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
Shop review: “Bright straw yellow in color. Delicate on the nose, with notes of flowers and almonds. Dry, well-structured and delicately fruity, with hints of bitter almonds on the finish that is typical of Garganega-based wines.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg VA)
My review: The smell of the wine was sour and light, as was expected with a white wine.  The taste had hints of citrus, particularly lemon.  I could taste the bitterness of the almonds mentioned in the review as well.

I drank this without food.
