TCA-affected nose. And palate. Shame. Grist to the Gleave corkscrew mill... [see Screwcaps in Italy and Which Italian wines may be screwcapped ] (JR)

The 2009 Soave Classico Calvarino has an extra degree of fleshiness that is typical of this bottling. Succulent peaches, pears, flowers, mint and spices are woven together beautifully. The 2009 is poised and centered, yet also wonderfully expressive from start to finish. This is a dynamite effort from the Pieropan family.
