2022 Soave Classico ‘casette foscarino’, Monte Tondo - Veneto

The 2022 Soave Classico ‘Casette Foscarino’ from Monte Tondo is a brilliant expression of the Veneto region’s volcanic terroir. Hailing from the historic Soave Classico zone in northern Italy, the wine is grown on the steep, mineral-rich slopes of Monte Foscarino, where the basaltic soils and cool breezes from the Alps lend elegance and freshness to the Garganega grape. This area is known for producing some of the finest white wines in Italy, and Monte Tondo is a standout producer, run by the Magnabosco family, who have farmed these lands for generations.

The 2022 vintage was generous, yielding wines of lovely balance and aromatics. In the glass, ‘Casette Foscarino’ bursts with notes of ripe peach, white flowers, and a touch of almond. It’s textured, zesty, and beautifully layered. Ideal with seafood risotto, grilled vegetables, or creamy cheeses, this wine is a go-to for dinner parties or a sunny afternoon in the garden.
