INAMA “Carbonare” Soave Classico 2019
(Soave, Veneto, Italy) $28
If you’re of a certain age, you may remember the heydays of one of the worst popular wine ever sold in the United States—Bolla Soave. It was so insipidly bad that the reputation of an entire region (Soave) was compromised for decades. But quietly and slowly, true Soave—especially Soave Classico—is coming back thanks to producers like Inama, Pieropan, and Anselmi. Inama’s “Carbonare” is a beautiful, fresh, minerally wine with a certain fullness and richness but without any slather of oakiness. (The word soave means “smooth”.) Inama “Carbonare” is pure and complex, and a steal to boot. Drinking it with mushroom risotto the other night was heaven. (13% abv)
