Tasting - La Cappucchina Soave


 
Name: La Cappuccina Soave
Variety: Garganega
Region: Veneto
Country: Italy
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
 
Winery 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.
 
My Review: The initial taste is light and fruity, but the after taste is quite bitter. Looking at the ingredients I could taste the almonds at the end of my second sip. Because it was a white, fruity wine, I did enjoy the light taste of it. Then end taste wasn't my favorite, but I wouldn't mind drinking it again.
 
I did not have it with any food; maybe if I did have it with a complementary dish the after taste would be weaker.
