Beppe Morchetta, Bianco, Veneto, Italy, 2024

Producer Profile

Beppe Morchetta encapsulates Italian style and good taste with a trio of wines from selected vineyards in the Veneto that are unmistakably Italian, both in presentation and character.

The latest addition to the range is a bright, fresh and fully sparkling ‘Spumante’ that combines Garganega and Trebbiano in a delightful lively blend. Meanwhile the ‘rosso’ is a characterful blend of Merlot and indigenous Corvina displaying bright cherry and plum flavours, while the ‘bianco’ combines Garganega and Chardonnay in a classic expression of the local terroir, close to the town of Soave.

Viticulture

Grapes are harvested from young vines planted on the hillsides along the southern shore of Lake Garda. The combination of deep, mineral rich soils, atemperateclimate, with milder winters and cooler summers than in many neighbouring areas, and the cooling influence of the lake itself, makes this the perfect location for producing expressive and accessible wines.

Winemaking

Fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve the fruit purity and expression.

Tasting Note

A delicious Italian white, stray yellow in colour with green reflections. White floral notes such as peach blossom as well as apricot and baked golden apples and even a little melon. A moreish finish!

Food Matching

Versatile and easy wine to pair with a wide variety of food, but you can’t go wrong with favourites such as pesto pasta and tomato based dishes.
