Rizzardi Soave Classico DOP

Quite a distinctive herbal edge to the nose, Rounded rich palate with great freshness and a good creamy complexity, with lots of flavour and a savoury minerally edge. An interesting and characterful wine.

Guerrieri Rizzard is one of the oldest and most respected estates in the Veneto.

Guerrieri Rizzardi, the historic wine-growing firm in the Veneto region, is a result of the union between two ancient Veronese wine producers of substance: the Counts Guerrieri, owners of a centuries-old estate with vineyards and cellars in Bardolino, and the Counts Rizzardi, who acquired their vineyards in Negrar back in 1678, building the historic cellar of Pojega shortly thereafter. The small estate of Dolcè in Valdadige has always followed the life of the Guerrieri estate of Bardolino. The Soave estate, with its vineyards and cellar in Costeggiola, at the centre of the Classico area, was purchased in 1970.

Today, The Contessa Maria Cristina Rizzardi is the Managing Director and with her family, guides this stunning and historical producer. Guerrieri Rizzardi is based in Bardolino, housed in the ancient building belonging to the Guerrieri family and its ancestors since 1450, with vineyards in the four Classico areas for the production of the Veronese wines of Bardolino, Valpolicella, Soave and Valdadige. All the grapes come from estate vineyards and the wines are vinified in the cellars situated in each appellation.
