Hic Wine - A fabulous array of carefully chosen wines

Leonildo Pieropan

Soave

"If Nino Pieropan weren't a winemaker, he'd be a watchmaker," says Franco Allegrini. "It is because of his attention to the small details of white wine making that his wines are so outstanding."

Pieropan himself says that his quality derives from doing a series of small things right, "from the moment you pick up the secateurs to the time the cork goes into the bottle."

Pieropan's quality, rather unusually for a producer of white wines, is attributable largely to the work undertaken on the estate's 30 hectares of vineyard. He then ensures that his work in the cellar retains and amplifies the quality and style provided by the vineyard.

The vineyards are planted primarily with Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave (which bears no relation to its more prolific Tuscan namesake but is similar to Lugana). The Garganega gives structure and acidity to the wines, the Trebbiano di Soave perfume and richness of flavour.
